Season of Hope has been a Foundry tradition for over 10 years! Season of Hope is the time of year where as a church family, we commit to providing assistance during the holiday season to families in the Cy-Fair community through our School Adoption program and our partnership with Cy-Hope.
There are many ways to be a part of Season of Hope and opportunities to fit every budget and schedule - there’s something for everyone, and we would love for you to be a part of this year’s Season of Hope!
Vounteer to Serve
This holiday season, we invite you to serve by giving your time to our community. Join us in spreading joy and love by volunteering to help organize donated gifts or by assisting in Francone Elementary’s Holiday Shop. Whether you can spare a few hours or commit to more, every bit of service makes a meaningful difference!

Francone’s Holiday Shop
Francone Elementary runs a Holiday Shop for students to "buy" gifts for their friends and family by using the S.O.A.R. bucks they've earned for good behavior. Opportunities include helping students shop for the perfect gift or wrapping the items so they are ready to go under the tree. Join us in serving at the school by signing up for one or more of the following times.
All shifts are at Francone Elementary School. Various time slots are available.
