I know this is not a shrine event from the western region But I thought some of you would like the idea. Many have asked what can I do for Shriners Hospital for Children? Look what this lady has done in 2years who just wanted to do something different and help kids!
For the second year in a row, Nancy DeCastro of Glendale led the organization of the annual Houses of Hope gingerbread house competition, which raised $75,000 for Shriners Hospitals for Children.
About 3,000 people viewed the gingerbread houses created by 208 entrants. DeCastro and some of her friends founded Houses of Hope in Cincinnati in 2007.
"It was just a group of women who wanted to create and give a gift to the community at Christmastime instead of just the normal parties and gift buying," said DeCastro, who is chairwoman of Houses of Hope.
