A Summer Way to Give…
It took awhile, but summer is finally heating up, and we all know what that means… Vacations, travel, and special events to share with family and friends. At Acres of Hope, summer brings new hope and opportunity for our families. It also brings a decline in revenue.
We have the most amazing families living onsite who are making a new life for themselves. Andrea and Billy, pictured here, entered Acres of Hope in March of this year, and have made huge strides by redefining their value as family. Your support allows them the ability to continue in their growth.
This summer, we'd like to ask that you consider giving the equivalent of several Triple Lattes or a trip for a quick burger as an extra gift to Acres of Hope. One bed for the night at Acres is rated by a federal grant as being worth $12.50. Would you consider sacrificing a couple things to provide one good night's sleep for one person? You need only to CLICK HERE to donate. Thank you for your support!
Only Thirteen, and a Heart for our Families… 
Claire Wright, 2010 Jr. Miss California International, has been an ongoing supporter of Acres of Hope, choosing our organization as her platform when she decided to enter the Jr. Miss pageant. Claire has developed wonderful relationships with the families at Acres of Hope, and is moved with compassion for our children…with all they've endured in their young lives. Claire understands the necessity of living a life for God and finding strength in Him, and models that by her fun loving manner and gentle kindness.
Claire continues to support Acres through her involvement in other pageants. She is competing for Junior Miss Celebrity USA today and tomorrow at the Red Lion Inn, Sacramento, retaining Acres of Hope as her platform.
Claire recently won the Kohl's Kids Who Care local and regional competition and is one of 200 competing for the National Scholarship. If she wins, Kohl's will donate funds to Acres on her behalf. Acres of Hope is blessed to have such a friend as Claire.

Real Estate Referrals Benefit Acres of Hope
As the Real Estate market heats up, Acres of Hope would like to give you an opportunity to refer anyone you know who is buying or selling a home or property, to Tiffany our development director. Tiffany has gathered up a team of experienced Realtors in the Sacramento, Placer and El Dorado counties that will give Acres of Hope a referral fee on every closed transaction we provide them. If you already have an Realtor you use, please have them contact Tiffany at 530-878-8030 ext. 224 and she will send them information to see if they are interested in blessing Acres of Hope with a referral fee. We are excited about this new program and like to provide our Acres of Hope supporters with as many services as possible.
Acres of Hope is a faith-based renewal center serving at-risk women with children by providing them with a home and an environment of structured programming. Located in the beautiful Sierra Foothills, Acres of Hope's unique approach allows residents to live onsite for up to two years while staff and volunteers invest heavily in their lives by providing encouragement, practical life-skills training, job skills, mentoring and spiritual direction.
