Hadleys Hope

Hadley’s journey of giving back started at just four years old, running 5K races to support children battling cancer. By eight, instead of birthday presents, she asked for donations for pet and homeless shelters. At eleven, she launched "Hadley’s Bags of Hope," collecting luggage and essentials for foster youths, leaving a lasting impact and providing them with a sense of dignity, stability, and belonging. 

Her passion only grew. A baseball fundraiser she organized raised $15,000 for “Soldier’s Best Friend,” helping veterans receive service dogs. Recognizing the need for a bigger platform, Hadley founded her own nonprofit, “Hadley’s Hope.”

Today, Hadley’s Hope leads a variety of initiatives to support foster youths, military veterans, and families in need, including:

• Holiday Stockings of Hope – Providing foster youths with stockings filled with books, essentials, and pajamas for comfort and joy.
• Birthday Packages for Foster Youths – Ensuring every child can celebrate their special day with cake, decorations, and a heartfelt card.
• Cereal Drives – Partnering with schools to combat childhood food insecurity by supplying cereal to families in need.
• Operation Inspiring America – Encouraging youth to give back through school visits and service projects, creating handmade cards and artwork for first responders, veterans, and foster youths.
• Bracelets of Hope – Bringing communities together to craft bracelets for adults and children battling cancer and seniors in care facilities.
• 9/11 Service Project – Mobilizing students to assemble blessing bags for homeless veterans, ensuring they receive essential supplies and support.

Through donation drives, community service projects, and youth engagement, Hadley proves that one person, no matter their age, can make a difference. Hadley’s Hope is built on the belief that kindness, no matter how small, creates ripples of change.
