The Day of Hope serves children in our school system who are homeless or in great need of the basics. During the Day of Hope children will receive FREE medical exams, dental checkups, haircuts, photos, gift cards for new clothes & shoes, backpacks filled with school supplies and personal care items. This way, they can begin the first day of school on an even playing field.

The event will take place Saturday, August 8th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at The Salvation Army Center for Worship and Service at 1701 S. Tuttle Avenue, Sarasota, FL 34239.

We thank the Community Foundation of Sarasota County and the many donors that are making this event possible!
