For the past five years, The Columbia Club has been an incredible community partner to New Hope of Indiana, bringing joy, connection, and support to the individuals we serve. They generously sponsor our Day Services weekly bingo games, providing exciting prizes that make every “Bingo!” moment even more thrilling. Beyond that, Club members have forged meaningful relationships with our Achieving Inclusion and Meaning (AIM) group through exclusive tours, shared meals, and special events – creating lasting positive impacts on both our individuals and staff.

This December, The Columbia Club opened its doors once again for a heartwarming holiday gathering with our AIMgroup. Club members and our “AIMsters” teamed up to build and decorate gingerbread houses – turning icing, candies, and creativity into festive masterpieces! Laughter filled the room as everyone bonded over the sweet activity, getting to know one another better while crafting beautiful (and delicious) works of art to take home and enjoy throughout the season.

After all that creative fun, the Club treated everyone to lunch. Surrounded by beautiful holiday decorations, the group savored every bite and cherished the time spent together.

A huge thank you to The Columbia Club for your ongoing dedication, kindness, and support. You truly make a difference in the lives of those we serve!
