About Hope Rising: The Journey
Hope Rising: The Journey was born song-by-song over the past 5 years. These songs are more than music on an album; these songs are about a journey that many have traveled. A journey through hope, fear, anger, loneliness, sadness, and joy.
Music is the universal language – it’s healing, comforting, and provides an outlet. For me, it is my way of coping with, coming to terms with, and accepting the journey that God has chosen me to travel. It is my way of sharing with others that they are not alone. It is my way of offering hope to those who are searching for understanding. And it is my healing process.
If just one life has been changed by this album, then every step of my journey has been worth it.
We are never alone….

A portion of each CD sold prior to March 2011 has been donated to two different charitable foundations. These charities benefit research, patient support, and education for people battling the same illnesses that Stefani and her children battle.
It's true! For each CD sold, Stefani has donated a portion to both the United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation (UMDF) and the Immune Disease Foundation (IDF). The UMDF aims to "promote research and education for the diagnosis, treatment and cure of mitochondrial disorders and to provide support to affected individuals and families." Similarly, the IDF is "dedicated to improving the diagnosis, treatment and quality of life of persons with primary immunodeficiency diseases through advocacy, education, and research." So thank you for each purchase because you are improving the lives of the people who battle with these life-threatening illnesses daily!
