Polio? Not here! But wait... it is almost eradicated - but not quite! Since it still exists in the world, it is only a plane ride away! Help us in the final push to end this crippling disease world wide in this fun event - remember, every $1.00 you give becomes $5.00 thanks to the 2 for 1 matching of the dollars by the Canadian Government and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. We did it with Smallpox! And we can do it with Polio. Join us and together we can make a difference!

Maybe you have heard the story about the Starfish. About the little girl who walked the beach littered with thousands of dying starfish, throwing one at a time back to the ocean. When told that it was hopeless and could never make a difference she said as she threw another starfish: “Well it made a difference to that one.”

A Reason to Smile!

A Reason to Smile!

By John Chalkias, Executive Director, Seeds of Hope Children’s Ministry

In North America, a visit to the dentist is something many of us are privileged to take for granted; we often procrastinate over making an appointment and rarely think of a dentist appointment with a spirit of eagerness and gratitude. However, for the children and staff at the Seeds of Hope (SoH) Orphanage in Zambia, having a dental team come and treat their oral issues was an exciting, much-anticipated, huge blessing and reason to smile!
