“KIDS HOPE USA has been great for my son. Tim really loves it.   He really loves Mr. Steve.  On Tuesdays, he jumps out of bed, exclaiming,

‘It’s my KIDS HOPE day!’  Needless to say, he really

looks forward to it!”

Miss Sarah received an unexpected Halloween card from Samuel, her KIDS HOPE

USA child.  In it, the first grader thanked Miss Sarah for everything she has done for

him. 

"I don't have a favorite candy," Samuel wrote. "But the candy for me is you."

“These mentors take their time, money and energy to invest in our kids. Your investment is paying off. For some of these kids, that is the hour that they look

forward to all week!”

and said, “Tuesday. It’s just seven more days until you come

again!”
