'[Thank you] to the entire Splashes of Hope team that made  [this] mural possible from designing it, to painting it, and even installing it.  The mural is even more beautiful in person and it meant a lot to everyone.  As many NY hospitals the pandemic hit us hard and this piece honors so much of what everyone experienced and how everyone really came together to do their part as a team and everyone is a hero.  I can't begin to thank you enough for everything you do, have done for us as well as other hospitals and continue to do.  Your art work sparks the most positive emotions not only for our patients but also the staff, whenever we walk by your murals it's a great reminder that everything  will be okay.'

​Our friends at Dynasty Brush featured Splashes of Hope in their December Blog
"In 2013 Mr. Frederick Mink, CEO of FM Brush, read a news article featuring Splashes and Hope. Mr. Mink was so inspired by their mission that he contacted the organization, wanting to help the artists that bring those murals to life. FM Brush began donating brushes to Splashes of Hope, Heather and Fred became friends, and a wonderful bond was born. Last year Splashes of Hope made Mr. Mink "Man of the Year" at their annual fundraising gala.

Mr. Mink passed away in 2015 due to complications with lung cancer. He spent his final days in the care of those oat Glen Cove hospital. This summer on the anniversary of the passing of Mr. Mink, Ms. Buggee and Mr. Mink's daughter and FM Brush's Director of Cosmetic and Retail Sales Ms. Jacqueline Mink Cooper got together at Glen Cove hospital. It was there that the planning of a mural in honor of Mr. Mink began."

Splashes of Hope brightens patients' lives
"Standing in the playroom at United Cerebral Palsy Children's Center in Commack, it's hard to believe the concrete block walls of this former gymnasium were once stark white. Nowadays, these walls can talk; they sing, really, with colorful images of floating balloons, massive orange pumpkins, lush trees and rolling hills, gigantic sunflowers, dancing butterflies, hearts, bunnies and bears."
