Step into the season of giving and celebration at Ollie’s FoxFest for Hope — A Christmas Market with Heart!
On Saturday, November 15th from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Hope Presbyterian Church in Lutz, Florida (5107 W. Lutz Lake Fern Rd., Lutz FL 33558) will transform into a festive marketplace filled with community spirit, joy, and generosity – all in support of a very special little boy, Ollie Fox Payton.
Ollie was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), a rare and serious congenital heart defect. His courageous journey continues as he awaits a heart transplant in Gainesville. Through the Children’s Organ Transplant Association (COTA), family, friends, and supporters from the Trinity area are coming together to help give Ollie the best possible future.
At Ollie’s FoxFest for Hope, guests can:
Shop early for unique Christmas gifts, handmade treasures, and holiday treats.
Play classic carnival games and win prizes for kids and grown-ups alike.
Enjoy delicious food and festive bites that make the day complete.
Bid on remarkable silent-auction items generously donated by local businesses.
Every prayer, every dollar, and every act of kindness helps bring hope to Ollie and his family through COTA’s mission of assisting children and young adults facing a lifetime of transplant-related challenges.
Ollie’a family shared: “We’re so grateful to everyone who continues to show up, pray, and donate to COTA in honor of Ollie Fox. Each act of kindness reminds us that we’re not walking this journey alone.”
As the holiday season begins, we invite you to join us in creating a day filled with love, laughter, and light – a true celebration of hope and heart.
The countdown to FoxFest begins – mark your calendars and come be part of the joy November 15th!
