Kellin Foundation's Hands of Hope Gift Drive Sparks Holiday Joy

In the spirit of the holidays, Kellin Foundation is pleased to share the resounding success of the Hands of Hope Gift Drive, made possible by the heroes of our community – our generous donors, who, with unwavering support from local churches St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church, Pleasant Union United Methodist Church, Oak Ridge Presbyterian Church, and the broader community, brought joy to 32 children under our care and raised over $500 in gifts for children and adult patients at Central Regional Behavioral Hospital.

Leading the charge for Hands of Hope was Erin Hanes, Kellin Foundation's dedicated Youth Peer Support Specialist, whose unwavering commitment played a pivotal role in transforming the gift drive into a festive success story. Erin's efforts, combined with the immense generosity of our community heroes, have left an indelible mark on the holiday season for local families.

As we reflect on the season of giving, our hearts overflow with gratitude for the community and the donors who made this extraordinary feat possible. Your acts of kindness have not only brought immeasurable joy and warmth to those in need but have also set in motion a ripple effect of compassion and happiness throughout our community.

Join us in celebrating the magic of giving and the profound impact our community has had on making the holidays brighter for those we serve. Together, we've created a season filled with warmth, joy, and the true spirit of generosity.
