Why attend the Interpretations of Hope event?

 

The annual Interpretations of Hope event will benefit Blair’s Tree of Hope.  All proceeds from the event will be utilized to help fulfill the mission of Blair’s Tree of Hope.  Our mission is to help families of children who have been hospitalized with a life threatening illness due to pediatric cancer, bone marrow transplant or pediatric blood disorder.  We provide things like Target Gift Cards, meals, gas cards, grocery cards, parking passes, toiletries, magazines, books, pillowcases etc. to the families.  We help with the little things so that the families can spend more time with their child.  Blair’s Tree of Hope strives to help the families.  We operate completely on donations we receive and our wonderful volunteers. 

If you’d like more information about this upcoming event or to schedule an interview with the event coordinator Melissa Barns, please call Melissa at 612-599-4416 or e-mail at dbarnsfam@msn.com
