The next drop in volunteer time will be Sept 11 from 6-8pm in Arvada in the Second Chance Thrift Store building.  This is where Foothills Community Church graciously provides much needed storage space for Packs of Hope.  We will be double checking/organizing backpacks before they are ready to take to one of the many counties we serve.  RSVP at info@packsofhope.org

May is National Foster Care Month!

How can you help a child in foster care?  Packs of Hope is always in need of donations of new clothes.  We have provided almost 2,800 Packs of Hope to kids in transition over the last 5 years!  It was possible only with the help of generous shoppers who provided a new outfit, pj's, and undergarments to children and youth who often had very little, if anything, while they were transitioning in foster care.
Would you like to Fill a Pack & Fill a Need?  Contact us at info@packsofhope.org

Eagle Scouts Rock!

Many thanks to Connor for choosing to help Packs of Hope as his Eagle Scout Service Project!  Connor did an incredible job collecting enough clothes for just over a hundred Packs.  There were so many toys and toiletries donated that they will definitely put smiles on hundreds of kids faces this year who are going through a very difficult time.  Thank you for a job well done Connor!
