In an effort to restore faith to foster children and their biological families in crisis during the holiday season, the Gift of Hope project is now underway in Kaufman County, and your generosity is needed and appreciated!
For the past six years the Gift of Hope initiative has been to restore a child’s faith in the community that is committed to protecting them during the removal from their families due to abuse and/or neglect during the holiday season. This project helps foster respect, not fear, of those who have taken the oath to protect and serve their communities.
The Gift of Hope is an annual partnership between REACH Child Placing Agency and local churches; the Terrell, Forney, and Kaufman fire and police departments; the Kaufman County Sheriffs’ Department; Kaufman County Constables; the District Attorney’s Office; local city and county elected officials; child advocate attorneys; the Department of Family Protective Services; and various community businesses and organizations.
Sponsors of The Gift of Hope are grateful for the residents, local churches, businesses, organizations and private donors of Kaufman County and surrounding counties that donate the $100 Walmart Gift Cards for the children to participate in The Gift of Hope each year. Please donate today! For more information on how you can donate, support or volunteer, please contact REACH Child Placing Agency CEO Tammy Pargoud at 972-325-8221 or Vanessa Brooks at 469-585-3395.
