Join Creative Memories and Albums of Hope for Helpers for Hope: Oct. 28 - Nov. 28 

Helpers for Hope is a month-long fundraising campaign to benefit Albums of Hope. It kicks off on Make a Difference Day (Oct. 28) and wraps up on Giving Tuesday (Nov. 28). 

What is Albums of Hope? Albums of Hope, a 501 (c)(3) charity organization, donates 2x3 Creative Memories Pocket Photo Albums filled with uplifting quotes and photos to local hospitals, cancer treatment centers, support groups, and individuals to fulfill their mission to lift the spirits of others during difficult times. 

What is Make a Difference Day? On October 28th, volunteers from across the country will unite for Make A Difference Day, one of the largest annual single days of service nationwide. Since 1992, volunteers and communities have come together on Make A Difference Day with a single purpose: to improve the lives of others.  

Three Ways to Get Involved

1. Donate your time! Between October 28 - November 28, commit to offer a service to a neighbor in your community in exchange for a donation to Albums of Hope. 

2. Create Your Own Album of Hope! A portion of every 2x3 Pocket Album purchased from Creative Memories is donated to Albums of Hope. Create your own album of inspiration for a friend who needs support. 

3. Become an Ambassador! Albums of Hope has welcomed nearly 30 Ambassadors across the country. These Ambassadors help gather volunteers to assemble albums, deliver albums, and host booths at Relay for Life and other similar events. Help spread the Albums of Hope mission to lift spirits in your part of the country.

We're Making a Difference Together  

Laura Townsend started Albums of Hope in 2010 hoping that a tiny album could have a big impact. After the positive reception at their first treatment center (North Shore Oncology-Hematology), and with support from Creative Memories, they’re now brightening people’s spirits across the nation. In 2017, Albums of Hope has helped more than 10,000 people at: 

  • 33 treatment centers, camps and lodging providers in 12 states
  • 18 Relay for Life events
  • 23 Ronald McDonald Houses in 13 states
  • Three Hope Lodges in two states 

You can help us continue to grow and make a difference! There are many ways to participate and show your support.
