261: Angel Tree For Hope Children's Home

For the second year CCB will be participating in the Angel Tree program. The program matches foster children with generous people like you willing to buy gifts for a child in need. The program is explained below I would just like to add as a personal note, having participated, that it never fails to move me when I read the wish lists from these children. They mostly ask for the kinds of basic things most kids take for granted. Shoes, underwear, food items and clothes are always highly requested.  So if you can swing it this Xmas, make a child's Christmas and pick a name from our Angel Tree. CCB will reward your holiday spirit with a free pint or 32 oz growler fill with every child you purchase gifts for.

About Hope Children's Home

For over 40 years, they’ve been helping discarded, abused, unwanted, or orphaned children, nearly 5000 in all.  Founded in 1968, Hope Children's Home has rescued nearly 5,000 children between the ages of 2 and 18. Some of them have faced life situations that you can’t imagine...

They’re located in Tampa on 55 beautifully wooded acres of land with dormitories for the boys and girls that can house a total of 80 children. Hope Christian School is also located on the property and is accredited by the state of Florida, providing a private, quality education to each of the children, Nursery through 12th grade.

Hope Children’s Home receives no State or Federal funding.  The children live in both dorms and cottages with a family atmosphere that provides guidance and encouragement. 

Our goal is to help as many children there as possible by having our employees, distributors, and patrons join us in helping to “adopt an angel” and fulfill a few of their Christmas wish items.   

Here’s how it works:

  • Select an Angel’s name from the tree

 

  • Obtain that child’s wish list of items (1 to 5 items…. However you can help is appreciated)

 

  • Purchase, wrap, and bring the item(s) to the brewery by COB, Wednesday, Dec 15th (please don’t forget to label the items for your specific angel with their name).  This can be done anomalously or you can include a card addressed to your angel…

 

  • The brewery will ensure that all gifts are delivered to the Hope Children’s home

Cheers and on behalf of the Hope Children's Home thank you in advance for your generosity,
The CCB Staff
