Over the past 2 years, our Christmas of Hope Drive was our biggest and most successful event.  With the help of our community, we assisted the United Organization of Madison County to help bring Christmas to less fortunate children and families in our area.  

This year is to be our most exciting year ever!  The Christmas of Hope Light Spectacular was unveiled on December 5 and offers a dazzling display ov several thousand lights that dance to the music.  It's a light show that the whole family will enjoy.  Feel free to stop in any evening and enjoy the wonderful display, starting at 5pm every evening and running until 9pm on weekdays and until 10pm on Fri-Sunday.  Shows begin on the hour and half hour and last approximately 20 minutes.  Located at the American Family office at 705 W Main St in Fredericktown.

Our past Toy Drives were a huge success and allowed hundreds of presents to be placed under Christmas trees throughout Madison County.  In the past years, through your kindness we have donated almost 1,000 toys to local children for their Christmas.  In addition, we have donated almost 200 toys to the SEMO Family Violence Council for use in their programs to provide a safe haven for victims and families affected by domestic abuse. 

Rescue Hope was able to provide Christmas for an additional 34 local children just last year who had missed the deadline for the United Organization's toy program.  Through our community's effort, we were able to provide Christmas toys for all of those children this past year. 


Your hard work, kindness, and generosity have made an impact on countless lives in our area.  Feel free to visit our Want to Help page and see how you can make a difference this Christmas season!
