Campaign celebrates childlike creativity, joy this holiday season
From staff reports
This fall, inside a bright and bustling classroom of four-year-olds at the Beaufort Memorial Learning Center, the spirit of the holidays arrived early. Crayons danced across paper, small hands worked with joy and focus and giggles filled the room as young artists poured their hearts into creating festive designs for the Beaufort Memorial Foundation’s 2025 Tree of Hope campaign.
This year, four unique ornaments, each featuring a joyful design created by Learning Center students, are available for purchase through the Beaufort Memorial Foundation for $30 each. Proceeds from the campaign will directly support the Foundation’s mission to expand access to healthcare throughout our region.
The Beaufort Memorial Learning Center currently enrolls 72 students and celebrated the opening of its new location on the main hospital campus last November.
Through this partnership, the creativity and compassion of Beaufort’s youngest learners help bring health and healing to the community they call home.
The Tree of Hope campaign is more than a holiday tradition, it’s a celebration of life, hope and giving, highlighting the profound impact Beaufort Memorial has made on thousands of families over the past 81 years. Through the dedication and generosity of our community, the Beaufort Memorial Foundation has contributed millions of dollars to enhance and expand vital services, ensuring that Beaufort Memorial continues to provide exceptional care close to home.
Each Tree of Hope ornament captures the wonder of the holidays through a child’s eyes, reminding us all of what truly matters: connection, kindness, and the magic of giving. Your gift helps ensure that families in our community have access to the care they need, when they need it most.
Tree of Hope ornaments are available for purchase until Monday, Dec. 15 for $30 each. To order or learn more, visit BeaufortMemorial.org/TreeofHope.
