Casa de Esperanza on Today's Lend a Hand

Casa de Esperanza de los Ninos was honored by NBC's "The Today Show" through its "Lend a Hand" program on June 15, 2011. The show aired live from our new neighborhood located near the Houston Medical Center. Now in its tenth year, "Lend a Hand" is a series on Today where Al Roker travels to 5 cities in 5 days helping out 5 charities. Through Lend a Hand, sponsors have generously donated goods to Casa de Esperanza, which will help further our mission to care for children in crisis in the Houston Community. We would like to thank NBC, The Today Show, Lend a Hand, Al Roker, Jenna Hager, and all of our generous sponsors for their extraordinary support and this tremendous honor!
