The Creek of Hope
“This image is a beautiful creek with ducks and gorgeous trees. I picked this picture because I think sometimes we can forget how pretty Vernon really is, and this photo just shows how pretty some places are in Vernon, and it shows hope for our city. We have a gorgeous city.” - Riya

We are the future and we’re counting on YOU. . .
What an unforgettable moment at the CARE Expo! The Grade 2/3 students from Alexis Park Elementary stole the show as they joined voices with the incredibly talented Holly and Kevin, Artist Response Team, for a moving performance that reminded us all of what really matters.
Their singing echoed through the room as they sang proudly, “we are the future and we’re counting on YOU!” Words that mean so much, especially when sung by the very voices shaping tomorrow!
This collaboration wasn’t just music, it was a message. A message of resilience, of unity, and of how powerful young voices can be when they’re heard.
A huge thank you to Holly and Kevin for inspiring and guiding these students, and to all who attended the CARE Expo for creating a space where community, climate and care come together.
These kids are the future, and it’s never looked brighter!!

HOPE
“To pave a pathway for a better future is like a blooming flower. It symbolizes a new beginning and youth - having hope and faith in growing to become an even better person, until you’ve fully grown to your full potential.” - Annie

✨Mentor Spotlight ✨Eve from Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association!
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Eve, and what a joy she was! From our very first meeting, her excitement to be part of CARE was truly uplifting.
Eve’s passion for empowering students and helping them find their voice was nothing short of inspiring. Her energy, insight, and heart made a lasting impact, and we’re so grateful she chose to share her time and knowledge with her CARE teams!
Here’s what Eve had to say about her experience as a mentor:
“Being a mentor for the Grade 6 students in the Climate Action Ripple Effect program has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Witnessing their passion and ingenuity in developing climate action projects has been truly inspiring. I am thrilled to see the program expand to School District 23 this year, allowing even more young minds to engage in creating a sustainable future. The CARE Expo is a fantastic culmination of their hard work, providing a vital platform for students to connect with sustainability-focused businesses and see real-world applications. This program is a testament to the power of community collaboration in fostering environmental stewardship from a young age.”
Thank you, Eve, for being such a bright light in the CARE community!
✨we’re in the early stages of planning for CARE 2026. If mentoring is something that peaks your interest please email Kasey at kasey@freshoutlookfoundation.org✨

Welcome to the Hillview Hall of Hope: Where Hope Inspires Change, One Photo At A Time!
At this year’s CARE Expo in Vernon, the students of Hillview proudly shared their project: “Hillview Has Hope for Climate Action” that they worked on with CARE!!
This project started with one big question, “what does HOPE look like?”
Each photo captured is what hope means to the students, not just wishful thinking, but believing that good things can happen, and taking action to make them real. Even when the challenges feel big, they choose to act!
Hope is powerful. Hope is a spark for change ✨
If you didn’t get a chance to see them all, don’t worry, keep checking back! Each student’s image and personal write-up will be showcased right here!!
“We hope our project helps you see hope, and maybe even spread it.”
