Nick and Zoe's "Why"

Formed as a way to expand the August's Boxes program initially developed in partnership with North Shore Evanston Hospital in December of 2020, A Community of Love seeks to provide a "community of love & support" to families experiencing the death of a child. 

Born out of their own loss of their 3-year-old son August in a tragic accident, Nick and Zoe Hoeppner pulled from the strength of their own "community of love"- friends, family, and the beautiful communities of Wilmette and Skokie/Evanston, Illinois - to form this non-profit with the goal of equipping and supporting bereaved families, healthcare workers, and others impacted by pediatric death.
