\r\nBasket of Hope is a 501\u00a93 non profit organization whose mission is to bring the hope that comes from Jesus to children suffering from cancer or other serious illness by the delivery of a Basket of Hope containing items to nourish them physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
\r\n
\r\n<\/div>
\r\nThe Basket of Hope program believes that if we can encourage the parents of these seriously ill children they serve as the most effective support for their children. Therefore, we include inspirational books, Bibles, and journals for them to remind them of God\u2019s love for them and their children and that He will be with them through this journey. Thanks to Tony\u2019s generosity, we will be providing his book, Quiet Strength, in all of the baskets across the country this year. We feel this book will be an inspiring message of hope to parents as they face an unknown future for their children. Tony and his wife, Lauren, understand what it is like to have a child with a serious illness as well as the fact that they have suffered the most difficult loss of a lifetime in the loss of their son, James. Yet, they hold on to the eternal hope that we have through Jesus.
\r\n
\r\nTony Dungy is the National Spokesperson for the Basket of Hope and encourages other NFL players, coaches, and individuals to begin a Basket of Hope program in their local Children\u2019s Hospital.
