The Hope Letter Campaign is a global initiative inspiring students across Canada to become globally-aware citizens. Through heartfelt letters and meaningful reflections, participants engaged in an incredible journey of empathy, resilience, and an awareness to international issues.
Echika is a young girl in rural Indonesia. Everyday, she travels with her mother for hours to collect water form the spring to replenish their supply. This is how they get water for cooking, drinking, and cleaning.
However, the water they are using is not clean. Sometimes, she and her friends get wounds on their skin because of the water, and washing with the water can cause further infections in their skin. Echik hopes that one day, they can get access to clean water that is close to their village.
With your letters of hope and support, let’s bring hope back to Echik’s life. Join us in sharing letters of hope to her and her friends!
You can choose to use a special hope letter template that you can fill out on your computer. This means you can type your message of hope right into the template without having to print it first.
If you prefer or want to draw a message of hope, you can also print the template on paper and write or draw by hand.
Additionally, you are welcome to make your own design if you want to be creative and come up with something completely unique!
Whether you type it, write it, or design your own, your message is equally important to Mbana and Kenzo.
Take some time to think about what hope means to you, and then you can either write or draw a special message to Echik and her friends!
You can share something that makes you feel happy, or even draw a picture that represents hope.
Let your creativity shine, and remember that your words or drawings can bring a smile to their faces.
Once you have finished writing your letter of hope, you can share it in two different ways!
You can either upload your letter of hope below or send your letters through mail to the Good Neighbours Canada office:
1585 Markham Rd., Unit 213,
Toronto, ON M1B 2W1
Deadline for submissions will be at 11:59pm on August 31, 2025. Any submissions received after that will not count towards the Hope Letter competition. Winners will be contacted through the email provided either on the form below or the one listed on of their physical letter. Please ensure that you have filled out the contact information at the bottom of the template to be contacted for contest results.

Children all over the world are facing health risk because they lack access to clean water. Your monthly donation will go to children whose stories are just like Echik and her friends. Good Neighbours’ program aims to reduce the number of children living in poverty. Monthly donations will go to addressing the individual needs of the children as well as supporting their families to help them become self-reliant.
