They say it gives kids and their families a much-needed break in the face of adversity.
“Kids just have this anticipation for something and so it’s something they look forward to so they kind of forget everything they’re going through in the meantime and then they have these wonderful memories they can build off too,” said Brian Anderson, Executive Director of HopeKids Minnesota.
HopeKids says they host around 500 events throughout the year.
