From scholarships for our students to instructional supplies and maintenance, there is always a need for which we could use your financial assistance or gift-in-kind. To make a gift to Hope Hall, contact Linda Foster at (585) 426-5824 or by email at hopehall@rochester.rr.com. Remember, your gift may be tax-deductible.
Thank you for your support!
Hope Hall and People's Pottery
On Sunday, December 10th, People’s Pottery at Eastview Mall will host a fundraising event for Hope Hall. This is a fun way to do your Christmas shopping and help the school!
Come and enjoy refreshments, qualify for door prizes and do your holiday shopping. 20% of every purchase made by a shopper who is there specifically for Hope Hall will be donated to the school. People’s Pottery is a beautiful store with a wonderful selection of merchandise by artists from all over the country. There is truly something for everyone.
So shop, enjoy the refreshments, and help Hope Hall during this Holiday Season.

Easy Fundraising Activities
Once again our school is participating in the Campbell’s Labels for Education program. This program enables Hope Hall to earn free educational and athletic equipment. You can help us by saving labels from any of the hundreds of varieties of Campbell’s products.
We are also collecting Box Tops for Education from your General Mills products.
There is also another opportunity for those people using the Target charge card. Target charge card users can designate a school of their choice to receive a donation equal to 10% of their charges. You must mention this at the time of your purchase, and let them know that you would like this donation to go to Hope Hall.
Again, this year, with the help of St. Pauly Textiles, Hope Hall will be able to collect used clothing throughout the entire school year instead of a one-time only clothing drive. A permanent — 24 hour — collection box is located at Hope Hall in the back parking lot, next to our playground fence. Your clothing donations will be reused in the U.S. and Third World countries. Your donations are tax deductible and Hope Hall will earn $40.00 for every 1,000 pounds donated. During the last school year (2005-2006), we raised nearly $2,900.00.
