Our Skills Training Programs are implemented at many of our projects around the world. Thanks to these programs, students are given the opportunity to learn skills to help them obtain employment after they graduate, so that they can help support their families right out of high school and eventually become financially independent.

Our Hope In Action Fund supports children in their health, educational, and livelihood needs. Contributions are used in emergency situations, like when natural disasters strike, in times of extreme hardship due to health challenges, and when families are unable to pay for school activities for their children.

We add new children to our program every day, and finding enough sponsors for all of them is one of our greatest challenges. The global need is so profound that some children wait months for a sponsor. Gifts made to our Shared Hope Fund provide immediate assistance to children awaiting sponsorship.

Our Higher Education Fund helps young people pursue their dreams of completing certificate programs or obtaining a degree from a university or college. Many of our Higher Education Fund beneficiaries have returned to their communities in positions as teachers, nurses, social workers, accountants, architects, counselors, and speech therapists.

Donations go to support feeding programs in the U.S., such as our back pack feeding program, which gives children in Eastern Kentucky food to take home on the weekends and food in the summer when school is not in, and they are not receiving meals on a regular basis.

Back to school is one of the toughest times for children in need. Not having new outfits or school supplies to start the school year off right can diminish their confidence and make it difficult for them to focus. Contributions to our Back to School Fund make it possible to give children a little extra for a better beginning, so that they feel good and are ready to learn.

Donations to our Warm Clothing Fund allow our coordinators to purchases boots, coats, hats, scarves, and mittens for our sponsored children living in particularly harsh weather, such as in Detroit, or Eastern Kentucky. You can make a huge difference in the life of a child by contributing to this fund today!

The purpose of our International Feeding Program Fund is to feed enrolled children who would otherwise go hungry so that they can be alert at school and ready to learn. This fund supports programs in the Philippines, Kenya, and Ethiopia to buy grains, meats, vegetables, and cooking supplies to feed children.

In Kenya and Ethiopia, children need mosquito nets to protect them from mosquito-borne illnesses so that they’ll be healthy enough to attend school. Each year, we purchase thousands of nets, thanks donors to our Mosquito Net Fund, which we distribute to our sponsored children and their families.
