Rays of Hope International is seeking funding to provide pony rides, a petting zoo, a virtual reality roller coaster, carnival attractions, a gyroscope space ball, and a 25-foot climbing wall for our upcoming community event. These experiences promise not only enjoyment but also a chance for children to explore, learn, and thrive in a safe, nurturing setting.

🌟 We truly need your support! 🌟 Every contribution brings us one step closer to making these thrilling attractions a reality.
