11月30日 Peace and Hope Heroes Award CONCERT in Danbury CT The first "Peace and Hope Heroes" award will be presented to Dr. Ann Hines at a family holiday concert on December 8 in Danbury Ct. To read an article about Dr. Hines' inspirational story go to www.johnfarrell.net
The December 8 concert is a fundraiser to benefit the Hanahoe Memorial Childrens Clinic, which was founded in 1974 by Dr Hines and has continously provided free health care to familes in the area. For over 32 years Dr Hines has volunteered her services as a pediatrician to help families in need.
In a confusing world where advertisers and popular culture create heroes that are praised and idolized because they are marvelous looking, or have extraordinary athletic, musical, or artistic talent it is important and relevant to recognize "true heroes" who dedicate their lives to helping others and making our world a better and more just place. Dr. Hines is a shining example of such a hero.
I suggest that BOPH members encourage your students to look for and recognize "Peace and Hope Heroes" in your own communities. Let's reach out to redefine "Hero" as someone who demonstrates courage and commitment in his/her work to promote peace, hope and social justice by helping those in need.
