Because we live in such a wonderful area, there are other organizations and groups that hold fundraising events in which the proceeds go toward the Festival of Hope. The generosity of these organizations and groups goes beyond the money given. It is also the time, effort and creativity that is amazing and appreciated. The Festival of Hope has benefited from people of all ages, from first graders to adults.
Thank you Western Nebraska and Eastern Wyoming, you are incredible!!
