Helping Families Have A Brighter Future
SPRING

HELP GIVE HOPE!

We shouldn't complain, it was a relatively mild Winter, but we're still glad it's Spring! 'Green' returns, mowers mow, flowers grow, trees bud, longer days and warmer temps. Ya gotta love it!

Spring at Help Give Hope (HGH) means we're in full garage sale mode with our first Friends and Family sale coming up in several weeks (see details below). And Michael Brady, now officially our Executive Director, is fully embracing his new role to include non-stop work with families-in-need across Greene, Christian and Webster counties (see more below from Michael).

Let's take a closer look at all that's happening at HGH...


Thoughts From Michael
 
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the warm welcome and support I have received since being appointed as the Executive Director of Help Give Hope.

It is truly an honor to be part of such a dedicated team of individuals who are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of children and families in the Ozarks community. Your ongoing support and dedication to our mission are invaluable, and I am excited about the opportunities ahead as we work together to bring hope and assistance to those in need.

As we embark on this journey together, I look forward to meeting and collaborating with each of you to further our shared goals and create meaningful change in our community.

Thank you once again for your support, and I am eager to work alongside you all to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.


Warm regards,

Michael Brady
Executive Director

Garage Sales 2024


Sandy Zurfluh, Brad Gilbert and the entire garage sale team have been working hard the past two months as they prepare for a big 2024 garage sale season which begins April 20th with our first Friends and Family Sale.

Brad is out daily collecting garage sale items from very generous donors while the garage sale team at the warehouse collect, sort, place and price thousands of items. Come to a HGH garage sale and you'll be blown away by the quality, quantity, organization and choices available to shoppers.

It takes a village to have successful garage sales of this size and we owe it all to Sandy, Brad and our amazing team of volunteers! For them, it truly is a labor of love!

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

HGH is excited to welcome Chris Garoutte as the newest member of our Board of Directors. Chris has been an active HGH supporter and volunteer for years and will make a great addition to our board. He's already made a significant impact (ask him when you see him).

Did you know our board meets quarterly and serves as the governing body of our 501(c)3 non-profit? The members of our board take their responsibility seriously and are focused on organizational strategy, legal compliance, financial oversight and related operational activities. We're no longer a small, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants charity and feel it is our duty and obligation to our supporters to have multiple checks and balances in place.

The Help Give Hope Board of Directors:

Wade Palmer, President
Bill Miller, Treasurer
Mitch Wilson, Secretary
Jim Crumpley
Rod Loomer
Debbie Padgett
Phyllis Palmer
Jon Wyrsch
Chris Garoutte

Our next scheduled meeting is Monday, May 13th.
