Hope Blooms

Welcome to Hope Blooms. Developed by the law firm of HensonFuerst, Hope Blooms is a community-based garden established to promote and provide awareness regarding cancer research and cancer survivorship as well as to aid in the fight to eradicate cancer. Daffodils, one of the first flowers to bloom every spring, symbolize hope for a cancer-free world.

Hope Blooms Garners Local News Coverage
The Nashville Graphic recently published a story about HensonFuerst’s third year growing the Hope Blooms Garden, a community fundraiser and cancer-awareness.

In addition to the campaign to raise funds and awareness through the daffodil garden, HensonFuerst will also be awarding two new awards this year; the “Hope Award” goes to a caregiver that went above and beyond treating a cancer patient, and the “Courage Award” will be given to a cancer patient that has shown strength and courage while fighting this devastating disease.

HensonFuerst receives 2007 Relay For Life Honors
HensonFuerst’s 2007 Relay for Life team was honored with the Spirit Sponsor Award and was the Best Business Team Campsite winner. The campsite theme revolved around Hope Blooms, the community-based garden and cancer awareness program introduced by HensonFuerst in 2006. The team was also honored as an All Star Team, raising $7,379.36 for Relay for Life.

The first Hope Blooms garden was planted in Spring 2006. Located at the corner of Bethlehem Road and Harbour West Drive in the city of Rocky Mount, North Carolina, the garden was made possible by a generous donation of property by the city. We anticipate a number of other cities in North Carolina to follow suit, allowing for the creation of numerous daffodil gardens across the state. The gardens will be a living symbol of hope that one day there will be a cure for cancer.

Dave & Carma,

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. We know Mom loved you like a member of our family. As we approach the anniversary of her passing, it is always a tough time for us. It is easier though, knowing that these gifts of donation could hopefully someday help wipe out this disease and eliminate the pain for other families that we have experienced. She would be humbled and honored to think that you have done this. Thank you so much. This is a great project that your firm has committed to. Best of luck with it. You can count on my commitment in the future.

Thanks for being such a great friend to the family and most importantly, to Justin.
Love you.
-Cheryll

To help fill the garden, Hope Blooms has an annual fundraising event that is held in conjunction with the American Cancer Society's "Daffodil Days." Donations are accepted for pots of daffodils which are then placed in the garden. All proceeds go to the American Cancer Society, an organization that makes a difference in the lives of so many across our region and throughout the country.
