Trees for children

Carissa Barcus, Lisa Barth, Sara Jane Wilson, and Emily Goolsby (pictured, from left, at an earlier Trees of Hope event) are preparing to celebrate 35 years of Trees of Hope. Since 1990, the organization has raised funds exclusively for the Children’s Critical Care Fund at Star of Hope Mission. On Friday, Nov. 7, supporters will mark the group’s 35th anniversary at the annual gala at the Four Seasons Hotel Houston where the Advisory Board and Life Members will be honored. The holiday-themed event Hope Guides the Way – A Journey to the North Pole will feature live and silent auctions, festive music, dancing, and a visit from Santa. The highlight of the evening will be Trees of Hope’s signature items: stunningly decorated, themed Christmas trees available for bidding.
