Mission Of Hope

TO SERVE THE NATION OF HAITI AND SEE LIVES CHANGED BY OUR FIVE CORE RESOLUTIONS.

MINISTRY - MINISTRY IS ONE OF THE ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS OF MISSION OF HOPE, ALLOWING US TO SERVE THE NATIONS OF HAITI, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, AND GUATEMALA, AS WELL AS SUPPORTING MINISTRY EFFORTS IN THE BAHAMAS, AND TURKS AND CAICOS THROUGH SHORT-TERM MISSION TRIPS, CHURCH ADVANCEMENT THROUGH THE LOCAL CHURCH, PASTOR TRAINING AND OTHER ACTIVITIES THAT FULFILL OUR MISSION. THIS PAST YEAR DUE TO COVID-19, MISSION TRIPS TO HAITI, THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, AND GUATEMALA ONLY TOOK PLACE IN JANUARY THROUGH MID-MARCH. THOUGH MINISTRY THROUGH THE PARTICIPATION OF NORTH AMERICANS STOPPED, OUR INDIGENOUS LEADERS IN EACH COUNTRY WERE ABLE TO CONTINUE MINISTRY AT AN EXPONENTIAL RATE TO REACH PEOPLE WITH THE LOVE OF CHRIST. THROUGH OUR MINISTRY, ESPECIALLY OUR COVID-19 RELIEF EFFORTS, WE WERE ABLE TO SERVE OVER 2 MILLION PEOPLE.

EDUCATION - BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT EDUCATION IS VITAL TO LONG-TERM STABILITY AND DEVELOPMENT, MISSION OF HOPE PROVIDES SEVERAL TOP-QUALITY PROGRAMS TO EDUCATE STUDENTS AT ALL LEVELS. THE SCHOOLS OF HOPE IN HAITI CONSISTS OF 4 CAMPUSES AND 34 PARTNER SCHOOLS, WITH APPROXIMATELY 12,794 KINDER-HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ENROLLED. STUDENTS RECEIVE A NUTRITIOUS MEAL EACH DAY AND ARE TAUGHT THROUGH THE MWEN KAPAB (MEANING "I CAN") CURRICULUM, WHICH PROVIDES A CULTURALLY RELEVANT EDUCATION, GROUNDED IN BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES. APPROXIMATELY 50% OF THESE STUDENTS ARE INDIVIDUALLY SPONSORED BY DONORS IN OUR CHILD SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM AND MAINTAIN AN ONGOING PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE STUDENTS. OUR TECHNICAL SCHOOL HAS OVER 500 STUDENTS IN ATTENDANCE WHO ARE WORKING HARD TO LEARN SKILLS AND TRADES TO BETTER THEIR FUTURE. MISSION OF HOPE HAS ALSO EXPANDED ITS MINISTRY TO OFFER TUTORING PROGRAMS IN GUATEMALA TO HELP STUDENTS WITH THEIR EDUCATION.

NUTRITION PROGRAM - WITH OVER 650 NUTRITION PROGRAM PARTNERS, WE WERE ABLE TO FEED OVER 100,000 MEALS EACH DAY TO CHILDREN IN SCHOOLS AND ORPHANAGES THROUGHOUT HAITI. FOR MANY CHILDREN, A SCHOOL TIME MEAL PROVIDED BY MISSION OF HOPE WITH OUR PARTNER CONVOY OF HOPE, MAY BE THE ONLY FOOD THEY RECEIVE DURING THE DAY. THE PROGRAM ALLOWS US TO PROVIDE MEALS, VITAMINS, HEALTH EDUCATION, AND HOPE IN JESUS TO A GENERATION IN NEED IN A WAY THAT IS BOTH ECONOMICALLY RESPONSIBLE AND BENEFICIAL TO OUR COMMUNITIES. ADDITIONALLY, THROUGH OUR HAITIONE NETWORK WE WERE ABLE TO RESPOND QUICKLY AFTER NATURAL DISASTERS TO PROVIDE FOOD AND RELIEF AID TO THE MOST AFFECTED AREAS.

CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS - AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THE HOME BUILDING PROJECT IN THE LEVEQUE AND MINOTERIE COMMUNITIES, MISSION OF HOPE IS NOW FOCUSING ON REPLICATING THAT SAME MODEL OF HOME CONSTRUCTION IN THE VILLAGES OF LABODRIE AND TITANYEN. WE BELIEVES THAT WITH LARGER LOTS AND PROPER UTILIZATION OF GARDEN AREAS, MANY OF THE FAMILIES CAN GROW ENOUGH FOOD NOT ONLY FOR THEMSELVES, BUT ALSO TO SELL IN LOCAL MARKETS OR BACK TO MISSION OF HOPE. ADDITIONALLY, MISSION OF HOPE PARTNERS WITH THE LOCAL VILLAGES AND ORGANIZATIONS TO CONSTRUCT HOMES, CHURCHES, SCHOOLS, ORPHANAGES, AND LATRINES AS NEEDS ARISE IN THOSE VILLAGES. MEDICAL CARE - BASIC MEDICAL CARE IS HARD TO COME BY IN HAITI, THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC AND GUATEMALA. MISSION OF HOPE OFFERS SEVERAL PROGRAMS TO MEET THIS CRITICAL NEED. THE CLINIC OF HOPE IN HAITI CURRENTLY CONSISTS OF A FULLY OPERATIONAL OUTPATIENT CLINIC, A PROSTHETICS LAB, AND VISION CLINIC. IN GUATEMALA VISION SCREENINGS ALONG WITH CATARACT SURGERIES TAKE PLACE. MOBILE CLINICS IN ALL OF OUR COUNTRIES WHERE WE SERVE TAKE HEALTHCARE INTO VILLAGES AND COMMUNITIES. WE SERVE ABOUT 100,000 PATIENTS PER YEAR THROUGH OUR ON-SITE AND MOBILE CLINICS. ORPHAN CARE - VILLAGE OF HOPE PROVIDES A QUALITY HOME, A CHRIST-CENTERED EDUCATION, AND A LOVING CHURCH COMMUNITY TO 23 ORPHANS AND 34 TRANSITION HOME STUDENTS. CHILDREN IN THE ORPHANAGE ARE CARED FOR BY "MOMMIES" WHO LIVE ON CAMPUS WITH THEM. EACH MOMMY TAKES CARE OF ABOUT 6 CHILDREN, WHICH PROVIDES THE FEELING OF FAMILY AND ENSURES EACH CHILD IS GIVEN PERSONAL ATTENTION. PASTORS ACT AS THE SPIRITUAL FATHERS TO THESE CHILDREN, MENTORING AND DISCIPLING THEM ALONGSIDE THE MOTHERS, TO PROVIDE A GODLY EXAMPLE OF MANHOOD. OUR PRIMARY GOAL IS TO RESOURCE LOCAL FAMILIES AND THE CHURCH TO MEET THE NEEDS OF ORPHANS. IN DOING SO, WE WILL CONTINUE TO CARE FOR OUR ORPHANS AND SERVE AS A LAST-RESORT SOLUTION FOR ORPHANS WITH NO ALTERNATIVES. IN ADDITION TO THE ORPHANS STILL BEING CARED FOR IN THE VILLAGE OF HOPE, 34 OF OUR YOUNG ADULTS, OVER THE AGE OF 18, LIVE IN THE TRANSITION HOME. THE TRANSITION HOME ALLOWS THEM TO LIVE ON THEIR OWN AND GET PART-TIME JOBS, WHILE CONTINUING TO FINISH SCHOOL AND BE MENTORED AND PARTIALLY SUPPORTED BY SPONSORS.
