Hope

Megan Hopkin

To celebrate international friendship day I am raising money for Make-A-Wish Charity Uk. Make a wish is a charity that change the lives of children’s and their families. Unfortunately many children are diagnosed with life threatening and life taking illnesses, which doesn’t just impact the young person themselves but everyone around them also. But make a wish help make a child’s wish come true by giving them something to look forward to and an experience to give them happy memories to live by. To also bring some normality into their disrupted and worrying life’s  

This charity has helped thousands of children including someone close to my heart. They made her wish come true and gave her an experience of a lifetime. So I want to say my thanks also.

It would be so amazing to be able to raise money to help them bring many more smiles onto children’s faces and give them the hope and happiness they deserve.

My design represents love, friendship, peace and happiness. The colours instantly bring happiness into my eyes. The back logo represents people sticking by each other and love. The love our family and friends give us is what gives us hope. And I think it is always important to smile, that one smile you give a stranger can completely change their day. I smile to bring a cheer and when I get one on return it takes away some of my fears. Let’s spread the happiness, hold hope and be there for each other. 

I wrote this quote for this - “As we look up into the sky, a light twinkles and shines. As it dashes past our eyes, we make a wish and smile. And when that wish comes true, we hold onto the memory like glue. That wish gave us hope, that wish helped us cope. So when you look up into the sky, watch for that star that races by.”
