love

"What does love look like?
It has the hands to help others.
It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy.
It has eyes to see misery and want.
It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men.
That is what love looks like." 
Saint Augustine

Blossoms Pictures

Look at these beautiful pictures you get in your packet of cards! (2 each in a pack)




Did you know?

That in the Democratic Republic of Congo
  • 45.000 people die every month and over half of those are under the age of 5


  • Most of these deaths are caused by simple waterborne diseases that are easily treatable


  • many of the world's most prominent NGOs and researchers have the deemed the sexual violence and exploitation committed against children as the worst in the world today.


  • There are 5 million children in the Eastern Congo who do not have access to education of any kind


When you read statistics like this it seems implausible that you can make a difference. But that's not true! When you purchase Blossoms of hope greeting cards you can help change a child's life by giving them a good education.



When all of us join together we can make a big difference!
