Picture of Hope - HLHS 1997

In December 1997, Lenore Cameron located nine other families whose child had the same heart defect as her son and organized a gathering. Her son was 18 months at the time and it meant so much to her to see these older kids born with the same heart defect as her son, Jeffrey.   He's the little guy in the back row with binky while his mom was taking the photo. 

She took a group photo for herself and others looking for support and later named this photo, the "Picture of Hope".

Realizing that the networking of families was so important to other families as well, Lenore Cameron founded Little Hearts the following year and they've been taking the Pictures of Hope every year at their annual picnic.
