Telethon for Hope

ANNUAL EVENT – Saturday, December 7, 2019

The 16th Annual Telethon for HOPE is a major annual fundraiser to support Housing Assistance Corporation’s programs and services with the goal to give hope to all our clients we serve on Cape Cod and the Islands.

New this year, the telethon will be broadcast live from Barnstable High School in conjunction with Love Live Local’s LoveLocal Fest: Holiday Edition on Saturday, December 7, 5-8:30 PM. Cape Cod Community Media Center will produce the live event which will feature guest appearances from Housing Assistance clients, program directors, and community leaders.

Ways to Get Involved

PHONE FUNDRAISER: Help raise funds and awareness for our work as a Telethon Phone Fundraiser. Click this link to register. The telethon is a great team-building event and perfect for local companies, civic organizations, and community groups to come together for an important cause — ensuring our neighbors in need can stay stably housed this winter.

ONLINE FUNDRAISER: This is available to Telethon Phone Fundraisers as well as those who may be unable to attend the telethon. Set up an online fundraising page and share with your family, friends, and colleagues, letting them know that housing is necessary to a healthy and vibrant Cape Cod. Contact Catherine Baker at cbaker@haconcapecod.org or at 508-771-5400, ext. 273 to get started.

DONATE: As the days get shorter and the temperatures get colder, your generosity can be the difference between keeping a senior, a young family, or a single parent in their home and off the streets. Click this link to make a donation.

ATTEND LOVELOCAL FEST: HOLIDAY EDITION: Taking place on Saturday, December 7 and Sunday, December 8 at Barnstable High School, the LoveLocal Fest is free with a minimum suggested donation of $5. Proceeds from the event will go to support both Housing Assistance as well as Love Live Local’s Project Cape Made grant.

With more than 125 local artisans, crafters, makers, and restaurants in attendance, LoveLocal Fest: Holiday Edition is a great way to support our local economy while shopping for gifts this holiday season. In the process, you’ll be giving back and epitomizing the true meaning of the holiday season.

WATCH AND SHARE: The Telethon will air live on cable channels 98 and 99 and stream online on our Facebook page (click here) as well as on Love Live Local’s and Cape Cod Community Media Center’s pages.
