One Million Bubbles of Joy and Hope

Nothing brings smiles to people's faces like balloons do. The professional balloon decorating, and entertainment industry wants to help people find their smiles and joy during this challenging and frightening time we have entered. Balloons by Laura balloon decor and entertainment company will be participating in "One Million Bubbles of Hope" spreading cheer and hope across the Park Ridge Community.

On Saturday & Sunday, April 11th & 12th, over 700 balloon artists from 53 countries are participating in "One Million Bubbles of Hope". Artists are participating in a variety of ways from displaying balloon sculptures in their yards to broadcasting live balloon entertainment on social media. The intent is for the professional balloon industry to share their talents and skills that day to help bring happiness to as many lives as they can and remind the world that there is hope and kindness still out there as they face the new realities of COVID-19.

"With all the fear and uncertainty going on in the world right now, I felt like we had to do something," said Steven Jones, "One Million Bubbles" project leader of Balloon Designers in Seattle, Washington. "Balloons make people happy in ways nothing else does, so if working balloon professionals cannot make people smile right now, who really can?"

The first "One Million Bubbles of Joy" was held on March 26th, 2020 with over 350 designers participating from 15 countries. Balloons by Laura participated by making a patriotic display of an Eagle and a red, white and blue heart. "We wanted to portray the message , Stay Strong America."

It is our hope that when this is all over, over one million balloons will be used to create ten times as many smiles during this scary time for so many around the world.
