We Were Made to Thrive
A Tree Photo Contest
Come see us at the
Champaign County Fair
August 4-11, 2023
Booth located in front of the Merchants Building
We believe that humans were made to thrive, just like trees planted by the waters. We need healthy soil, deep roots, unbreaking trunks, strong limbs for others to take shelter, and fruits and leaves for the world to enjoy!
We want to do something unique with our faith booth this year: a photo contest!
Submit a photo of the coolest, most amazing tree you can find. Submit the photo below and our contest judges will select the top 5 photos to receive a special prize!
All photos will be displayed in our booth, so even if you don’t make it into the top 5, come to our booth to show your family and friends your great photography skills!
Why trees? Because we believe that trees serve as a symbol of health, longevity, stories, and values.
Our roots are tied to shared values that build toward a community that can thrive together.
Our trunk and limbs are the deep connections between faith communities, community organizations, businesses, and the individual. Together, growing from our common values, we create a strong network that benefit the many.
Our leaves and fruit are not for the few, but for all to enjoy. This group was started to help Champaign County thrive, meaning Hope 4 Good can be the shade and beauty you need to get back to a fulfilling life.
What’s Your Hope 4 Good?
