For years, Glide provided the opportunity for people to donate to the grocery bag program. To celebrate these gifts, Glide created the Wall of Hope. A paper bag was hung to represent each gift and the donor was invited to inscribe the bag with a tribute to the honoree. This Wall of Hope is the virtual continuation of this tradition.

 

We are proud to list the names of these donors and their honorees for making such a difference in our community.
