Why ladybugs?

We like ladybugs so much, we put one in our logo.
​​
The Hous Foundation honors the legacy of Annie Niewenhous and her children Isabelle and Parker by empowering children. Annie and Isabelle enjoyed painting ladybug rocks and hiding them for people to find. We are keeping their tradition alive!
​
Many people believe that ladybugs grant wishes. At the Hous Foundation, we make dreams come true by helping kids participate in nonschool and extracurricular activities they would not be able to afford without a little help.
​​​
Share the fun....paint some ladybug rocks!
We hope you will make some ladybug rocks - some to keep and some to hide for others to find.
There is no wrong way to make a ladybug rock. In case you need some help getting started, our friends made this video for you.
​
If you are going to hide ladybug rocks, please write
HOUSFOUNDATION.COM/LADYBUGS
on the back so new friends can learn about us.​ If you are painting a bunch, we can send you some labels with our QR code. Just ask!
