Being Thankful

At the Believe In Tomorrow Children’s Foundation we have so much to be thankful for during this Thanksgiving holiday season. Our pediatric hospital housing serving the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center has operated at full capacity all year, and I am thankful for our wonderful staff and volunteers who make those facilities such a welcoming place for some very sick children. Our Believe In Tomorrow respite housing services have also operated at a very high capacity and provided hundreds of critically ill children and their families from throughout the United States with magical moments of peace and relaxation throughout the year. This would never have been possible without the support of thousands of volunteers and donors who believe in our mission, and for this , we are very thankful. We are thankful to our Hands On Adventure partners in the bull riding, race car driving and airship flying sports. Their efforts have helped thousands of children believe in tomorrow by planting the seeds of hope wherever they go.

Although it has been a tough and difficult year with the economy, you cannot feel anything but optimistic and blessed when you are surrounded by so many people who believe in our mission of helping children and families in need……..and for that I am the most thankful.

Wishing each of you a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving Holiday.
