Are You Missing the News?

The E-news is emailed once a month to all our families. Because of SPAM filters many families are not getting that email from us. Here are three ways you can make sure to receive that Children’s Hope E-news email.  

Get e-mail updates from our News Blog

  1. Go to the Children's Hope News Blog and click on the RSS link logo. From here, you can select to receive an automatic email every time we have news updates on the Blog, including an E-news announcement, with a link, when the most recent monthly E-news is ready for you to read. 

Install a ‘Widget’ to Your Desktop

  1. You can also sign up for this computer desktop widget (pictured right) which will give you daily updates from the blog straight to your desktop. Again a headline telling you the E-news has arrived will be part of those Widget updates. With this option, Children’s Hope news will always be up-to-date on your desktop.

To sign up, simply
select on the
CHI widget pictured.

When the ‘Options’ page opens,
press the upper left icon ()
for the desktop installation.

You will then go to
your desktop to install
from this icon:

(You may have to install twice to get the CHI widget.)

Look for the on your desktop toolbar and select RSS Reader to view CHI news.

What’s exciting about the widget?  You have choices.

  • View the sneak peek, with an article summary and pictures, or see more news at a glance by viewing the headlines only.

  • Switch between Children’s Hope News Blog and Melody’s blog - Hope’s Song – with just a click of your mouse.

Adjust Your Junk Mail Settings to Allow Children’s Hope Email

  1. You can make your computer’s SPAM filter accept Children’s Hope group emails. Of course, individual emails from our staff do get through to you; it is the group emails we send (which contain the monthly E-News) that can get caught up in SPAM filters due to the high picture content. 

    All programs are different, but - in general - within your SPAM settings you can adjust the filter to approve Children’s Hope group emails. (Or you may add newsletter@childrenshope.net to your address book.)

    For example: 
    In Microsoft Outlook, you will have to look in the “Junk Email” folder. Highlight the Children’s Hope E-news email, click on the “Not Junk” button on the upper tool bar. You will then be asked to check, “Always trust email from………….”  This group mailing will then not end up in your Junk Mail.  

    Again your email system will be slightly different but you get the idea.

So you see, you don’t have to miss out.  Get your up-to-date news and stories on fellow families through Children’s Hope Blogs and E-News.

The next e-news is coming soon... Don’t miss it!
