fundraiser in 2013. We are excited to be a part of supporting Basket of Hope!

Point Elementary SchoolTeam: Cassandra, Chloe, and Lucas We will plan on participating in this

fundraiser every year that we are students at Point Elementary School!

It has taught us how important it is to remember the children in our community that are being treated for serious illnesses in our local hospitals.

Point Elementary SchoolTeam: Cassandra, Chloe, and Lucas Basket of Hope will use the funds to

purchase toys, games, craft items, and more that will help to fill baskets to be given to seriously ill children.

We hope that Basket of Hope receives a grant from Companies with a Mission so many more children will receive these wonderful gift baskets!

Point Elementary SchoolTeam: Cassandra, Chloe, and Lucas Basket of Hope started in our

community of Oakville, MO in 1995 and is now a nationwide organization!

Many of the baskets are delivered by local sports celebrities. Here’s some pictures of children receiving baskets!
