As we prepare to create a garden of fresh food and flowers at someone pointed out that there was one single sunflower currently flourishing in our backyard.
•
Ironically this Sunflower is growing in an area in which the soil is not suitable for growth nor is there direct sunlight. •
This sunflower is a representation of what we stand for at Hope House and that is Resiliance in Undesriable circumstances. Growing despite circumstances not being suitable for your growth and reaching your full potential of beauty both inside and out against all odds.

Let’s all take a lesson from this beautiful little sunflower 🌻

Forgotten about for decades at a time with NO thought about the children they have left behind. This week we speak with Brittany K.
