Inspired by the Jonny Diaz song, Soon She Will Run, Annie has captured the sweet personalities of each child in a beautiful field filled with pink flowers!  We know that while we miss Julia here on earth, she is running in fields of green in heaven today!

You can check out the progress of the calendar photo shoots at www.thedreamcalendar.com.  Dream along with us and see how God is moving in the lives of these families that Clouds of Hope is committed to reaching out to!

We want to sincerely thank each and every family that participated in this years event.  A great time was had by everyone who attended and we are well on our way to bringing adaptable playgournds to Temple Terrace thanks to your help.

Keep your eyes open for information about next year’s tournament!

It is so exciting to see the dream of Clouds of Hope become a reality and to be able to share that dream with so many others.   God has given us an incredible opportunity to reach out to so many families who are dealing with life altering illnesses.  We feel blessed to be able to be a part of it.

Thanks for sharing our dream with us!

As we take a huge step forward in partnerning with the City of Temple Terrace to provide an adaptable playground for children of all abilities, we have received support from a local photographer.  Annie Agarwal has chosen Clouds of Hope to be the beneficiary of the proceeds from her dream calendar.  She is gathering support from local business to sponsor the calendar which will highlight children from the Temple Terrace community that would benefit from an adaptable playground.

You can read about the calendars development and the progress on Annie’s website.   http://annieagarwal.com/thedreamcalendar/

We are really excited about this opportunity and look forward to the idea of an adaptable playground – or two – becoming a reality.

Let us know what you think and continue to check back as we’ll keep posting more about the calendar and the playground development.
