“Holiday Hope” is the largest fund-raiser for ASAP Homeless Services. We are having our annual cocktail reception gala and silent auction this year on Friday, November 7th, 6:30-10:00pm. It is being held at the Bradshaw Mansion in Historic Roser Park, home of Mr. Tom Barrett and Len Johnsen. Ticket price is $100.00, which includes valet parking, open bar, buffet dinner and live entertainment. All of our fund-raising is done by volunteers, so proceeds go directly to those in need.

ASAP Homeless Services, Inc., is a 501[c] [3] charity, so your donations are tax deductible. Please take this opportunity to make a difference in our community by helping homeless families stay together and begin new lives.

Every December, ASAP residents, workers and supporters carol through the streets of St. Petersburg to remind ourselves that 2000 years after the first Christmas there is "Still No Room at the Inn" for our homeless citizens. We carol at homeless shelters, restaurants and private residences. We finish with cookies and hot chocolate in Straub Park. Rides back to cars are provided. It's great support for the shelter and lots of fun to boot.

Before the caroling, from 5:00-6:30 PM, Friends of ASAP treated carolers and shelter residents to a free cookout. Caroling began at the ASAP Drop-in Center at 7:00 PMand ended with refreshments in Straub Park at 9:00 PM.
