15th Annual Holiday Hope Fund-Raising Gala
Saturday, November 6th

“Holiday Hope”, our annual cocktail reception gala and silent auction, is the largest fund-raiser of the year for ASAP Homeless Services at the St Petersburg Country Club, at 2000 Country Club Way.

Friday, December 10th

Every December, ASAP residents, workers and supporters carol through the streets of St. Petersburg, homeless shelters, restaurants and private residences. We finish with cookies and hot chocolate in Straub Park. It's great support for the shelter and lots of fun to boot!

"The caroling is great fun, and an annual tradition for many people in the Tampa Bay area," said organizer John Stewart. "People of all ages, professions, economic conditions, and religious beliefs carol together. What unites us is our belief that everyone should have decent housing.”

Still No Room at the Inn takes its name from the Christmas story, when Jesus of Nazareth was born as a homeless refugee. He was placed in an animal’s feeding trough because there was “no room at the inn” for him and his family. The caroling is a reminder that 2000 years after the first Christmas there is “Still No Room at the Inn” for homeless people in St. Petersburg.
