Ella's Hope had it's official Launch Party on March 18th at D. Rowe's Back Room.

The party was very informal and open to whoever wanted to come.  The crowd was steady all night and everyone was able to enjoy some refreshments, appetizers, cake and some March Madness on the big screens.

We want to thank everyone for showing up and a special thanks to David and Meghan for making sure everyone was happy with food and beverage.

We are Official!!!

We finally received our paperwork from the IRS and have been approved as a 501 (c)(3) charity in Missouri.

We waited for six months, but finally got the ruling on January 24th 2011. Much thanks to John and Debbie at Williams Keepers, LLC in Columbia for helping us get our paperwork ready and in order. These guys are amazing if you need an accountant in Columbia, MO. Highly recommended. - Hope
