Heart of Passion

Directions Website

For teens from teens! Atlanta, Charlotte, and New Orleans high school students dedicated to bringing fun to fellow teens who happen to have cancer.

Heart of Passion (HoP) seeks to inspire everyone we meet to strive for their own potential, to embrace the tiny moments that make up life, and to live confidently and compassionately, improving the world in their own way. We’re a 501(c)3 organization dedicated to providing individualized experiences that incrementally improve the world as a whole. Through our young adult leadership development program, we mold the new generation of leaders with character, confidence, conviction, and compassion. Graduates learn business fundamentals and confidence through obstacles, and they go on to compassionately apply these lessons in a variety of fields (missions, medicine, teaching, to name a few). Through our Red Carpet Day (RCD) Retreats, we provide positive unique experiences for teens with cancer to anticipate, enjoy, and make memories to share – positive memories to help balance out the negative uniqueness that cancer brings to their everyday lives.
