We`ve taken this #AutismAwarenessMonth to grow and learn as a team. All month long we`ve seen countless posts, read articles, and spoke to friends about their experiences with autism, either for themselves or as loved ones of someone with autism. It inspired us to release our latest blog post, touching on a bit of the journey that often isn`t talked about, but is just as important!

Hearts of Hope`s first ever Paint with a Purpose was a Valentine`s Day event. It was a community effort, a massive gathering of people from every walk of life, all coming together in response to national tragedy. It was compassionate, rewarding, and - pun intended - heartfelt. This Valentine`s Day, consider doing something for someone you care about - even if you`ve never met them before. You never know who might need a little dose of hope. π
