We also have our Hometown Heroes Page where we would love to honor your loved one serving in the military at the present time. Hometown Heroes

We love helping those who are reaching that 100th Birthday milestone with a showering of butterflies. 100th Butterfly Birthday Club

And last but far from least we have a program for groups to participate in Angels for Hope. We’d love to have you aboard! Group Participation

You may always request an Angel for anyone in need of hope, day or night. We are here Angel Request

Angels for Hope

Everyone remembers our Mille Club? Any volunteer who sends out 1,000 or more items over their tenure with Angels for Hope is automatically a member! Can you imagine making and sending over 1,000 Angels, butterflies or smiley faces? Amazing isn’t it?

We are happy to announce two new members of the Mille Club!

Congratulations Connie Pierpont and Denise Foss!

We now have 17 members in the Mille Club and we are so very proud of you! You may view the Mille Club members on our website Mille Club

Hugs,

Cindy, Mary and Diane

Request an Angel today

Wow are we behind on our Angel of the Month!!!!!! Let’s get going!

We would like to introduce you to Denise Foss of Dundee, Illinois.

Denise has been married for 35 years. They have 2 children and 4 grandchildren. She is blessed to have her 16 year old granddaughter living with her.

Denise crochets all three items for AFH, Angels, butterflies and smiley faces. She also enjoys plastic canvas, reading and gardening. (phew bet she is ready for spring!)

She loves all holidays but Christmas is her favorite.

It will come as no suprise, Denise collects ANGELS

A little quote from Denise about AFH :

“Angels for Hope is a selfless giving of love, peace, friendship, hope, prayer and compassion. I am proud to be a part of this group!”

You can see Denise is a very loving person and we are blessed to have her as an Angel. She touches so many lives through Angels for Hope as she sends a minimum of 2 items per week. Thank you Denise for all your hard work for AFH!
Hugs,

Cindy, Mary and Diane

For those of you not familiar let me introduce you to Punxsutawney Phil!

Hi Angel Lovers!
Can you believe it’s February?

I wanted to share our stats with you as we are gloriously happy! We not only met our goal for 2009 but were able to surpass it! We mailed out 81,489 items in 2009!!!!!!! At the present time we have approximately 400 members. Can you imagine that 400 people mailed out over 81,000 Angels, butterflies and smiley faces in one year! I’m still in shock.

We wanted to thank you for your support over the years. We are hoping 2010 will be yet another record breaking year.

Stay tuned for contests and more information about Angels for Hope.

Always remember, an easy way to help support AFH is to spread the word and have Angels requested for those in need of hope. We are offering the Winter and Valentine Angel for the month of February.

Hugs,

Cindy, Mary and Diane
