Once in a lifetime

For families living in the poorest communities of Africa, Asia, and The Americas, the opportunity to free themselves from poverty may come only once in a lifetime.

This is especially true when you take into consideration that the families you help through HOPE International Development Agency are among the absolute poorest of the poor and surviving on less than $1 a day.

The families you help live hidden on the margins of their societies, and in nearly every case, have lived in abject poverty for generations.

The importance of your giving, whether it is a large or a more modest gift, cannot be understated. This is especially true when you consider that that your gift has done something extraordinary even before it provides safe drinking water, medicines, medical supplies, education, or whatever is needed at the time; it has provided a once in a lifetime opportunity to be free from poverty.
