💜🖤 A HUGE THANK YOU TO SIGMA NU FRATERNITY! 🖤💜

Today, we were blessed to welcome the brothers of Sigma Nu Fraternity from the University of Mount Union to Harvesting Hope!

These young men jumped right in and helped make a difference by:
🚚 Unloading our van
📦 Stocking our Blessing Barn
🍽️ Serving our community meal

Their willingness to give their time, lend a hand, and serve others is what community is all about! Every helping hand allows us to reach more people and continue serving our neighbors in need.

To the brothers of Sigma Nu, thank you for showing up, pitching in, and being part of something bigger than yourselves! We appreciate you more than you know! 💜🖤

🎄❤️ WHAT IF THE SMALLEST GIFT YOU GIVE THIS CHRISTMAS BECOMES THE BIGGEST REMINDER THAT SOMEONE IS LOVED? ❤️🎄

For some seniors in our community, the holidays can be a quiet reminder of what’s missing—not a house full of loved ones, not gifts under the tree, and not always the everyday essentials we take for granted.

But together, we can change that. 🎁

Harvesting Hope IYC is collecting donations for Christmas Care Packages for Seniors, and we want every package to send one powerful message: You matter. You are remembered. Your community cares about you. ❤️

We’re gathering everyday necessities, cozy winter essentials, comforting snacks, and small surprises to bring warmth, dignity, and joy to local seniors this Christmas.

🧴 Personal care: Lotion, deodorant, body wash, ChapStick, Kleenex and laundry sheets

🍪 Comfort & treats: Crackers, individual snacks, chicken noodle soup and small cans of ginger ale

🧣 Warmth for winter: Blankets, gloves, hats, scarves and pajamas

❤️ A little joy: Game books and thoughtful surprises

✨ YOU DON’T HAVE TO GIVE BIG TO MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.

One blanket. One package of crackers. One bottle of lotion. One small act of kindness.

Each donation can help us put together a care package that reminds a senior they have not been forgotten.

Imagine the smile on someone’s face when they open a gift prepared by people who care—even people they’ve never met. That is the heart of this mission. 🎄❤️

🎁 Will you help us fill these care packages with more than just supplies? Will you help us fill them with HOPE?

Here’s how you can help:
❤️ Donate one or more items.
🎁 Purchase an essential from our wish list.
📣 Share this post so others can join in.
💌 Message us for donation drop-off details.

Let’s show our seniors that the spirit of Christmas is alive in our community—and that kindness doesn’t have to cost a fortune to mean everything.

🎄 Harvesting Hope IYC
Growing hope. Sharing kindness. Caring for our community.

❤️ SMALL NONPROFIT. SIGNIFICANT RESPONSIBILITIES. EVERYDAY IMPACT.

A quarter-million-dollar annual budget may sound like a lot, but in the nonprofit world, Harvesting Hope IYC is still a small organization. That budget supports an entire year of serving our neighbors—and everything required to make that service possible.

Behind every meal delivered and every bag of food shared are expenses that often go unseen:

▪️ Electricity to run our refrigerators, freezers, and kitchen
▪️ Property taxes and insurance
▪️ Water, trash service, and internet
▪️ Fuel, vehicle maintenance, and repairs
▪️ Building upkeep, cleaning supplies, and meal packaging
▪️ Food purchases and wages that help keep our programs operating

Donated food helps fill the shelves. Financial donations help keep the doors open, the food refrigerated, and the delivery vehicles moving.

Our volunteers give generously of their time, and we work hard to stretch every dollar. Even with that incredible support, there are significant bills to pay each month so our seniors, families, and neighbors can continue counting on us.

When you support Harvesting Hope’s everyday operating expenses, you help make every part of this ministry possible. Keeping the lights on is part of feeding our neighbors.

We trust God’s provision, and we are grateful for the individuals, churches, businesses, and organizations who help carry this responsibility with us.

Please prayerfully consider a one-time gift or ongoing monthly support. Every gift helps us continue sharing God’s love through nourishment, kindness, and connection. ❤️

As the weather changes we continue to pray that our prayers become a reality soon! We serve an on-time God. 🙌 Sometimes the waiting is hard, but it makes the answer to our prayers even more beautiful. He hears every prayer, sees every tear, and is working even when we cannot see it. Keep trusting His timing. If you would like to support financially please donate at www. harvestinghopeiyc.org❤️🙏
