As the holiday season begins, the Boys Hope Girls Hope of Southern California staff, board, volunteers and students are finding more and more reasons to be thankful. This past Sunday, Wells Fargo and two of our AmeriCorps Volunteers, Tim and Katie, put together a Thanksgiving feast, where the Boys Hope Girls Hope family reflected on the year’s progress and blessings.
The Boys’ Home was overflowing with excitement as we shared food, conversation and laughter. Eyes watered and hearts swelled when two of our scholars performed a stunning rendition of “The Prayer,” originally sung by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli. BHGH supporters of both the past and the present reconnected and reminisced about the memories once shared inside and outside the home.
Especially in these times of hardship, it is the warmth, comfort and inspiration of a family that allows one to persevere and strive for a brighter future.
We would love to share this experience with you.
Our scholars and staff at the Thanksgiving Feast!
