Give Back to the Community with "Light a Night"

Mad Anthonys Children’s Hope House is hosting their second annual “Light a Night – Tree of Hope” fundraiser. Mad Anthonys Children’s Hope House provides families a home-like setting, meals, and other necessities just steps away from their children who are being cared for at a local hospital. They provide overnight accommodations in a family-centered, supportive environment to any family with children in any community hospital.

A nominal $10 fee is requested from house guests, but the actual cost to provide each room is $95 per night. Many families cannot afford to pay anything and no is turned away due to an inability to pay.

“Light a Night – Tree of Hope” is an opportunity to “give the gift of community" by donating a small amount to provide a free stay to families in need. The Tree of Hope is located at Bob Evans at the Village of Coventry (I-69 & US 24). Each light on the tree represents a night’s stay for a family with an ill child in the hospital.

For more information on how you can donate call (260) 459-8550 or visit http://www.childrenshopefw.org/.
