“Hope In Front of Me” Christmas Cards to Help the Homeless
A painting of a stranger making his way toward a snow-covered bench is being used to bring hope to local homeless people seeking shelter this winter.
Titled “Hope in Front of Me,” the work by artist William Mangum is featured on the Honor Card, a holiday season fundraiser for homeless shelters. This year’s card takes its name from a song by former “American Idol” contestant Danny Gokey, who sings of hope ahead in spite of brokenness and struggle. “This song has an amazing symbolism of the journey that the homeless and needy encounter each day,”
Greenville, North Carolina’s homeless shelter, Community Crossroads Center, unveiled this year’s card at St. James United Methodist Church.

Danny Gokey Helps “Open Door Mission” with #TurkeyNFixins
To help those in need Open Door Mission kicked off their “Turkey N Fixin” campaign Friday. The Open Door Mission is planning on delivering 5,000 turkey-n-fixin boxes to families in need. The best part is that the boxes will be delivered to the families’ houses, so they can enjoy their Thanksgiving meal at home.
American Idol contestant Danny Gokey was on hand Friday at the Shadow Lake Hy-Vee to help kick off the event. He says that helping those in need is very important to him. “I’ve been that guy who’s, you know, had to deal with homelessness myself. Whether you see it or not, it’s there.”

Danny Gokey is A-MAZE-ing! Is Any “Idol” Ever Featured in Corn???
Seven years after his season of “American Idol” ended, we think this just might be the most unusual promotion…. Danny Gokey‘s face is the inspiration for an 11 acre cornfield maze! It’s being used to promote an upcoming fundraiser at the Florence Civic Center’s Uptown Ballroom on Thursday, Nov. 17.
The charity event will benefit the House of Hope and Sophia’s Heart Foundation. Organizers report that the idea to use Danny’s face was agreed to by his management in just an hour! (Early consent was essential since mazes have to be planted that way, not cut into the shape!) and that Danny is expected to get a bird’s eye view of the maze by riding a helicopter over the field the day of the show!
The concert is sponsored by BREATHE, Lifetime Hearing, Freeman’s Bakery, and McArthur Farms.
There aren’t too many artists that let you walk all over their face…. but anything for a good cause, right Danny? 🙂
