For young girls and boys who end up on the streets of Brazil, abuse and exploitation are all too common. They are often very confused about the concepts of love. The Heart For Kids program is one of our efforts to help get them on the right track.
We use Valentine’s Day as a fun way to discuss love, relationships and managing feelings without manipulating or being manipulated. Clearly, our kids have had lots of negative role models.
Each year, you can join us in the fun of communicating an uplifting message by sending Valentine’s Day cards! We ask that you then mail all cards to our US office by April 30th.
On Valentine’s Day, you can make cards for the children at Hope Unlimited, and then send them to us! It may seem like a small act of kindness, but getting a card is a big deal to our kids. Many have never received a letter or card from anyone.
The Hope campuses serve 1000 annually. These cards are intended for those who have no families to return to and live on our campus.
Resources:
- Downloadable valentine cards
- Custom Hope Unlimited for Children envelope
- Instructions to make a digital eCard

Feel free to make homemade cards and add personalized messages in English. There will be translators to read them to the children at the party. Many friends of Hope even host Valentine’s Day parties where they share the joy of making cards together. When you are done, please send your valentines to our office address 3130 Alpine Rd. Ste. 288-125, Portola Valley CA 94028.
Below is a list of names for all of the current students at both of our campuses. Girls and boys are indicated by color. You may choose to personalize some of your cards by randomly selecting names from this list. You may also choose to generically address some cards “Dear Valentine.”

Test Drive Bet365 — My Authentic Experience
I always approach such sites warily. I don't like it when bonuses look attractive and then evaporate or have 100 conditions. But Bet365 pleasantly surprised me — everything turned out to be sincere.
Initially, I spent some time examining the rules. There is a whole section on licenses and legal information — it's clear that it's not just a form. I also noticed that the site has tools for game control: setting limits, timers, and even the possibility of a pause for a certain period.
Games — for every preference. I settled on slots with free spins because I love the excitement. The winnings were humble, but I managed to withdraw everything without commissions. I communicated with support — they responded in English, without a translator. This is also an important element for me.
What else I liked — the mobile version works without glitches. I tested it on the go, and there were no disturbances, even with slow internet. I didn't install the app because everything works from the browser anyway.
