Hopealive268 Inc

HOPEALIVE268 (HA268) IS A CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION COMMITTED TO IMPROVING THE PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL AND SPIRITUAL NEEDS OF THE ORPHANED, VULNERABLE AND ABUSED CHILDREN OF ESWATINI, AFRICA. HOPEALIVE268 WORKS WITH ORPHAN, VULNERABLE AND ABUSED CHILDREN IN ESWATINI, AFRICA AND UNDER THAT UMBRELLA WE HAVE SEVERAL DIVISIONS. CARE DIVISION: HA268 WHICH FEEDS AND CARES FOR YOUNG CHILDREN ACROSS THE LUBOMBO REGION. WE CURRENTLY HAVE 8 CAREPOINTS. CAREPOINTS ARE WHERE CHILDREN COME TO RECEIVE A MEAL TO FEED THEIR VERY HUNGRY BELLIES. FOR MANY, THIS IS THE ONLY MEAL THEY RECEIVE FOR THE DAY. IT'S ALSO A SAFE PLACE WHERE THE CHILDREN CAN BE CHILDREN, LEARNING HOW TO PLAY, NOT WORRYING ABOUT WHERE THE FOOD MIGHT COME FROM AND ACTUALLY HAVING THE ENERGY TO RUN AND EVEN GIGGLE. EDUCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP DIVISION: HA268 SENDS STUDENTS TO SCHOOL, AND ENSURES THEY HAVE THE SUPPLIES, UNIFORMS AND ALL THEY NEED TO SUCCEED. WE CURRENTLY HAVE ABOUT 30 STUDENTS ENROLLED AT 15 DIFFERENT SCHOOLS ACROSS THE LUBOMBO REGION. THESE ARE ORPHAN AND VULNERABLE CHILDREN WHO OTHERWISE WOULD NOT BE ATTENDING SCHOOL DUE TO FINANCES. SCHOOL IS NOT FREE IN ESWATINI. SOME OF OUR STUDENTS HAD BEEN OUT OF SCHOOL 2 YEARS DUE TO THE LACK OF FUNDS BUT AFTER RE-ENROLLING THROUGH HOPEALIVE268, THEY ARE THRIVING! THESE KIDS, NOW WITH THE ABILITY TO FULLY CONCENTRATE ON THEIR STUDIES ARE PLACING AT THE TOP OF THEIR CLASS. IT IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. HOPEALIVE268 ALSO PAYS FOR UNIFORMS, BOOKS AND WE OFFER A FULL-TIME TUTOR. OUR HOPE IS TO GET SOME OF THESE KIDS SCHOLARSHIPS TO UNIVERSITIES UPON GRADUATING. UNTIL THEN, THE KIDS ARE IN SCHOOL AND THE CHANCE OF ABUSE, HIV AND EARLY PREGNANCY IS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED. ANTI-HUMAN TRAFFICKING DIVISION: HA268 IS IN THE FIGHT TO STOP TRAFFICKING IN AND THROUGH OUR COUNTRY AND DO THIS THROUGH EDUCATION. DUE TO THE NUMBER OF ORPHANS AND POVERTY, ESWATINI IS AT HIGH RISK. WITH INDIVIDUALS BEING TRAFFICKED AND 99% NEVER BEING RESCUED, WE EDUCATE IN SCHOOLS, HOSPITALS, CHURCHES, POLICE STATIONS AND ANYWHERE ELSE ABOUT THE DANGERS OF THIS HORRIFIC CRIME! WE PRODUCED A VIDEO FOR THE OLDER STUDENTS/ADULTS AND WROTE A CHILDREN'S BOOK FOR OUR LITTLE ONES THAT IS USED ALL ACROSS ESWATINI TO TEACH AND EDUCATE ABOUT HUMAN-TRAFFICKING. TRIPS DIVISION: HA268 DESIRES TO IMMERSE INDIVIDUALS IN THE SWAZI CULTURE, ENGAGING THEM IN PROJECTS THAT BRING HOPE AND IMPACT THE NATION IN A POSITIVE WAY. WHILE STAYING IN THE HEART OF THE COUNTRY, INDIVIDUALS ARE INVOLVED IN VARIOUS PROJECTS THAT ENHANCE THE LIVES OF THOSE IN NEED. TRIPS ALLOW INDIVIDUALS TO STEP OUT OF THEIR COMFORT ZONE AND HELP OTHERS, MAKING A POSITIVE IMPACT FOREVER. OTHER HA268 PROGRAMS:1. LIFE COACHING IN PERSONAL HEALTH, HYGIENE, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY AFFAIRS. 2. TRANSPORTATION FOR HEALTH AND EDUCATION.3. SISWATINI LESSONS FOR THOSE STRIVING TO LEARN THE LANGUAGE OF THE ESWATINI PEOPLE
