    Thumbs up World Hoop Day 8th August 2008 !

    Join in on the WHD Mission

    Since 2007, World Hoop Day has been dedicated to bringing toy and dance hoops to underprivileged children living in extreme poverty and underdeveloped neighborhoods of our world. Founded by Annie O'Keeffe, World Hoop Day is a not for profit organization that uses a community-based approach to provide durable hoops. The adult-sized hoops can be used their entire life as a simple and effective way to bring joy to an otherwise devastating situation.


    There are many aid organizations who provide food and medical relief, but what about the mental welfare of a child who grows up too quickly and hardly has a reason to smile or play or just be a child? To date 1,100 hoops have been given away, and a total amount of $1,500 has been raised. The simple hoop has positive physical and mental health benefits, stimulates imaginations, and enables feelings of pure joy and bliss.




    We need your help to continue this amazing project!

    $5.00 will donate 1 simple hoop with 1 color plain tape to a local child.
    $10.00 will donate 1 fancy taped hoop with 2+ colors to a local child.
    $15.00 will donate 1 simple hoop with 1 color plain tape to a child in another country.
    $20.00 will donate 1 glitter/sparkle taped hoop to a local child.
    $25.00 will donate 1 fancy taped hoop with 2+ colors to a child in another country.
    $30.00 will donate 1 glitter/sparkle taped hoop to a child in another country or 6 plain hoops to local children.

    Please consider donating what you can.
    Your contribution is tax deductible.

    oh btw my costs are different. My fancy hoops (sparkle and or 2 or more colours.) are around AU$5.00 each to make or less depending on where supplies come from.

    The Sydney celebrations got changed from 6pm-8pm to 8pm-10pm - of course some of us didnt find out until we had been waiting around for half an hour or so...
    I probably wont be able to go now which is a shame but at least it looks like its going to be fun! (-:
