Hopeful Hearts Foundation Wraps Up Year With Six Major Community Projects
The Hopeful Hearts Foundation (HHF) is closing out 2025 with an impressive series of community initiatives, school outreach programs, and youth-focused engagements carried out across November and December.
On November 7, the foundation partnered with Logos Hope, giving 15 children the opportunity to tour the iconic floating book fair. The students received a full guided experience onboard and each left with a book of their choice and an ice cream treat.
As part of World Children’s Day activities, HHF collaborated with Something Nice Books to distribute 50 specially designed activity books. The books featured crossword puzzles and educational content created to encourage learning and creativity among young readers.
The following week, HHF visited the Adele School, where the organisation donated essential sanitary supplies and spent time interacting with students. Foundation volunteers described the visit as a warm and uplifting experience for both the children and the team.
Looking ahead to early December, HHF will donate computer monitors and PCs to Piggots Primary School on December 4, aiming to strengthen digital literacy and improve access to technology for students.
On December 5, HHF Founder Kristine Louisa, recently appointed as a National Youth Ambassador, will visit Pares Secondary School to speak on youth violence, the value of positive behaviour, and student responsibility. During her engagement, she will lead students in her well-known affirmations: “I am capable of doing anything” and “My mind is powerful.”
The foundation will conclude the year with its annual Christmas Project, which aims to support between 300 and 500 underprivileged families with toys, clothing, food items, and other essentials to ensure a brighter holiday season.
HHF says its mission remains focused on empowering young people, strengthening families, and uplifting communities across Antigua and Barbuda.
