Voice of Hope Ministries Books Arranged by Guided Reading Level Voice of Hope Thanksgiving Turkeys and Book Drive | November 5 & 12 Once again this year the Outreach Committee will be collecting Thanksgiving turkeys and cash donations to purchase turkeys for families associated with our community partner, Voice of Hope. This organization seeks to equip inner-city families in West Dallas with the resources and skills needed to overcome and break the poverty cycle. In addition to accepting turkeys, we will also be collecting new (or gently used, emphasis on gently!) books for use in the VOH after school reading programs. The extensive list of appropriate books is below. Collection dates will be Sundays, November 5 and 12.
