Global Harmony Through Personal Excellence will host children and parents who reside at Community of Hope. The families live in temporary and permanent housing and are working very hard to get solid economic footing. For 24 years, our organization has been honored and delighted to host this event for the families and to work with Community of Hope, an award winning nonprofit.
The families affiliated with Community of Hope and the volunteers from Global Harmony through Personal Excellence sing Christmas carols and holiday songs to the elderly at the Washington Center for Aging Services, a nursing home in northeast DC. As we carol through the halls, the children visit the elderly and hand out many homemade holiday cards. The residents are thankful for the attention and clearly touched by the goodness and humanity of the children.
The families from Community of Hope are then transported to a private home in northwest Washington where they eat lunch, play games, share, and hear stories. As they depart, each person is given a beautifully decorated bag of useful and fun gifts. The gifts are chosen carefully, and they are donated from a wide community of generous people. “Many hands make light work”, and like many of you, our donors are special people who support and root for the wholeness and success of everyone.
We would be honored to have your assistance and interest in this event. Our goal is to make this year the best year yet for everyone involved. We are now gathering gifts, gift cards, and cash donations. To learn more about making a donation or volunteering, please click here.
