The story

A Story About Hope

Hi there. My name is Hope. I’m that little warm feeling you get when you are excited for something good to happen. I am the feeling that tells you everything will be okay, even when things are a little tricky.

You might feel me when you’re waiting for your birthday party to start. You feel me when you plant a tiny seed and wait for a flower to grow. Or when you're learning to ride your bike, and you believe you can do it, even if you wobble. I'm there to help you keep trying and look forward to happy things.

I am always with you, like a little light inside your heart. I grow stronger every time you believe in yourself and look forward to tomorrow. I am here to remind you that wonderful things are always possible.
