Dear friend,
 
It is a time to reflect on all that has happened over the last year and count our blessings. We are grateful for the generosity from so many individuals, businesses and organizations in our compassionate community. Sharing your time, talents and treasure to support our neighbors in need is vital. We cannot do what we do without you. Thank you for placing your faith in us and for sharing our hope that no one should go hungry and that everyone deserves a safe place to live.
 
I am so very proud of the many ways in which the Operation Hope team and our Board continues to go above and beyond for our clients during yet another difficult year. I thank them for all they do every day to keep our clients safe and supported. By providing homeless outreach, rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, homeless prevention, a food pantry and community meals, we are ensuring that our struggling neighbors are not left behind.
 
If you’re looking beyond the December holidays, I invite you to scroll below to participate in innovative ways to support Operation Hope. But for now, as another year draws to a close, I hope you have a chance to pause and enjoy the magic of the season. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanzaa! From all of us here at Operation Hope, we wish you and your loved ones peace, health and happiness this holiday season and in the New Year!
 
Gratefully yours,
 
Carla Miklos
Executive Director
Operation Hope of Fairfield
