“Celebration of Love” (COL) is an event that takes place during the Holidays. The COL program is geared toward feeding the hungry and helping families who are facing difficult times in their lives. During the event, each family receives a Christmas box that includes a turkey, can goods, milk, pie, bread, etc. This does not include the love gift that is displayed to them by our volunteers on the day of the event. With your support you will be helping us meet the needs of our communities starting with the basics, food. By meeting this very basic necessity we will work together to bring hope to many more families this year.

In 2007 we expanded the COL program by feeding 3,500 families (an estimated 35,000 individuals) at three separate locations. On December 8th, 2007, PromiseLand West, Army Community Services and the Fort Hood Installation Chaplain's Office hosted a COL event that reached 1,300 military families at Fort Hood, TX. On December 15th, 2007, Snappy Snacks Mobile Catering hosted a COL event that reached 1,600 families at the Foreman-Phillips Reaching Out Center location in Pflugerville, TX. Also on December 15th, Southwest Hills Community Church hosted a COL event that reached an additional 600 families in South Austin.

We would like to thank all of the volunteers and sponsors that made 2007 such a tremendous success.
