Our youth programs are supported by fundraising activities held throughout
the year. The money raised
by our youth at these events allows them to attend mission
trips, ski trips, camp,
and other activities at reduced or no cost. It takes a lot of work for these
events to be successful, so all youth (and adults) are encouraged to help.
Kroger Cards offer an
easy way to support the youth program by simply buying groceries. Click
here for more information on how your purchases at Kroger can earn Community
Rewards dollars for New Hope's Youth Group.
The Mexican
Fiesta Dinner is held each winter. Middle
and High School youth transform the church into a south-of-the-border
style restaurant and enjoy an evening of greeting and serving
all those who attend. Dinner includes salad bar, entree,
beverages, and dessert. Come join us for good food and fellowship
for a good cause. Watch for details on the next Mexican Fiesta coming in winter 2012.
The New Hope Garage Sale takes place each spring. This event
attracts people from miles around central Ohio. This two-day event is our largest
fundraiser. Watch for more information on next year's Garage Sale scheduled for
Spring 2012.
Favor Auctions take place in the fall. Youth and congregation
members donate goods and services, ranging from cultural dinners to babysitting,
to be bid on via silent auction.
