The project began in 2016, starting with the Children’s Hospital Kantrida in Croatia. Over 400 letters were delivered with encouraging words written by children in Croatia and the USA. The 1st Annual Walkathon was held on 8/28/16 raising funds for an Oxylog Ventilator that was needed at the Children’s Hospital Kantrida. Since then, we’ve delivered encouraging letters to children in hospitals in Puerto Rico, Rijeka, Osijek & Split, Croatia. Christmas gifts and letters have been sent to children in orphanages, like the Children's Home in Vinkovci, Croatia. Through a partnership with the School the World organization, we've built our first 'Children Have Dreams Too' school in La Dalia, Honduras. We were so moved by their mission and ability to provide quality education to some of the world's poorest children and are so glad to have been able to do our part. Other contributions include educational material & tools for the Autistic Center in Zagreb, Croatia. We are also in the process of finalizing our donation to help with Cystic Fibrosis equipment at Children's Hospital Kantrida in Croatia. We are working towards a global effort to make sure no child ever feels alone. Our goal is to choose projects each year that will truly impact the children of our future, expanding into all areas of the globe.
