Hi Josh!
We mailed the Stars of Hope our family painted earlier this summer while vacationing together, directly to Maria Delgado Cazaras in El Paso. They arrived at 10:33 a.m. on August 17, 2019. It is our hope and prayer that they encourage the people who need it the most. Others do care and stand with them in their struggles!
Also, our church, Main Street UMC in Bay St. Louis, MS, is getting ready to invite our community to once again paint Stars of Hope at the Bay St. Louis Second Saturday event in September.
As survivors and thrivers of Hurricane Katrina, we can identify with devastating loss and recovery.

Hi Judy!!
Thank you so much for the update. Our El Paso bank is organizing photos we hope to share very soon on our social platforms. They are definitely making an impact. We are currently working hard to activate over 1,000 students in El Paso as our “first phase” to empower El Paso through the power of art. It is because of you and all our volunteers that the light is shined during darkness. Thank you and I can’t wait to see your September creations! As always feel free to contact me with any questions @ Josh@starsofhopeusa.org
