Greetings dear friends from The HOPE.

Wow! Amazing! Incredible! Yippee! Thanks zoo friends for deeming the Mission of Hope worthy of FREE Day at The Knoxville Zoo. We are so grateful for this awesome gesture of support for our food drive needs this year. Just bring some non-perishable / canned food items and get in FREE. This year\’s event will be Saturday, November 8th and Sunday, November 9th. The zoo is open from 10 AM until 4:30 PM. Last year\’s Zoo for the Hope Food Drive raised 60 fifty-five gallon barrels of much needed food items for our humble Appalachian ministry.

What a FUN way to help the children and families we in turn serve with wonderful food items. The Knoxville Zoo is an incredible place and it offers a great way to have fellowship and a good time with you and your family. So please come on out for a great time. And we also want to say a special THANK YOU to all of our animal friends there who along with the cordial zoo staff help make this event a very special occasion, and one you\’ll be blessed to experience.

Thanks for your friendship & support and for all you do to help us extend The HOPE.

Sincerest Regards;
Emmette Thompson – Executive Director – Mission of Hope
