PRESS RELEASE

HOPE, AR – Making Rainbows of Hope is excited to conduct its annual Rainbow Of Challenges Angels Christmas Drive.

The goal of the drive is to provide a merry Christmas complete with toys, clothes, and essentials for many area children when the chances of their families fulfilling their Christmas wishes may be impossible.

Last year, many children from Hempstead, Lafayette, and Nevada counties had their wishes granted by the ROC Angels Christmas Drive.

An ROC Angel Christmas tree will be located at a front entrance of the Wal-Mart Supercenter in Hope, with each tree hung with ornaments that identify deserving “angels."

Simply pick a number from the tree containing specific information on each child, such as shoes' and clothes' sizes, favorite color, and specific wishes.

The unwrapped toys and items may be dropped off at the Rainbow of Challenges administration building located at 500 South Main Street in Hope.

The deadline to drop off items is Friday, December 9.

The items will then be wrapped and distributed to the families of the angels during the month of December.

Those who purchase items are urged to attach the number representing their Angel when they drop off their items in order to match it to the name on the list being kept at Making Rainbows.

For more information, please contact Michelle Bowlin at Rainbow of Challenges at 870-722-1228.
