About
The Event
The Christmas Box Angel of Hope was first introduced to the world in the international best-selling book and hit television movie "The Christmas Box", written by Richard Paul Evans. The original Angel of Hope statue, inspired by the book, was dedicated on December 6th, 1994 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Since the placement of this first statue, it has become known as a place of hope and healing for anyone who has suffered the loss of a child. Each year, individuals and agencies in support of grieving parents sponsor new statues to be placed throughout the world.
What Would Bri Do believes that everyone is a child of someone!
