Join us in commemorating the victims of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on Sunday, August 6th for the 39th annual From Hiroshima to Hope event in Seattle, WA. Hanford Challenge is an event sponsor and we will be tabling, so please stop by and say hello!

“The mission of From Hiroshima to Hope is to commemorate the victims of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and all victims of war and violence. We educate for peace, non-violent conflict resolution and nuclear disarmament through a public outdoor event on August 6th featuring music, speakers, and a lantern-floating ceremony.” (From Hiroshima to Hope website)
