WANT TO GIVE A SPECIAL CHRISTMAS GIFT THIS YEAR?

                                ONE THAT FITS THE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS?

                                                                GIFT HOPE IS FOR YOU!

Gift Hope MGM 2020, the 9th annual, community wide, alternative gift fair, will feature numerous nonprofits that serve “the least of these” in our community and will offer shoppers the opportunity to make a donation for specific items in honor of another.  In other words –

Give Hope This Christmas to someone in need.  It will be the perfect Christmas gift for:

                                Children and Grandchildren of all ages

                                Teachers

                                Colleagues

                                Friends

                                Loved ones who are “hard to shop for”

By supporting Gift Hope MGM, you are helping to fund specific community needs through each nonprofit – for example, one week of hot meals for an elderly couple or one night’s shelter for a homeless family. (Gifts will be available at a variety of prices, most starting at $5.) The gift recipient will receive from the gift purchaser a card announcing the gift made in the recipient’s name and the name of the designated nonprofits.

This year’s Gift Hope event will be on Saturday, December 5, 10:00am – 12:00pm at Cloverdale Park across from the First United Methodist Church. There, “shoppers” will have an opportunity to speak directly with nonprofit representatives, view their displays and learn more about their missions. (COVID safety precautions will be followed at this outdoor event.)

We have an “online shopping” option as well!  Gift Hope shopping is available online at https://fumcmontgomery.org/gifthope/ until December 13.  Brief videos featuring each nonprofit, a link to their website, and a shopping menu of gifts will be available online.
