Tangible hope

Gifts of Hope is a year-round, alternative gift-giving program of the synod. Winter boots for a low-income client family through Community Family Life Services, medication copay support for a senior at Fellowship Square, and roof repair for a church in Slovakia are only a few of your choices. Celebrating its 24th anniversary in 2016, Gifts of Hope has raised and dispersed more than $3.1 million to outdoor camps, Lutheran educational institutions, international Companion Synod projects and area social service agencies affiliated with the Metro D.C. Synod. Choose from 40 Gifts of Hope ranging in price from $10 to $250 in 2016 accompanied by a card notifying your recipient of your selection, and you will make a difference in our community and our world.
