Mission Statement 

The Hugs and Hope Club for Sick Kids is a ministry devoted to encouraging children battling critical illness and their families.   

*The HUGS and HOPE Club provides the rare gift of friendship:  a listening ear, a sympathetic heart.*

Our mission is to share God's love and provide friendship and support to families of sick children who live within the United States by encouraging visitors to our site to send happy mail "our kids." 

We also provide a "Parents' Pal" Program, where we assign a volunteer to each parent of our kids.  This  personal "parent pal" encourages, cheers, and supports the family in crisis.
 
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.  For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ."        (II Corinthians 1: 3-5)

Send some joy to a sick child!
