Hope For The Nations

ORPHAN YESTERDAY, LAW STUDENT TODAY

Around the world, many of the orphans that Hope for the Nations has been caring for, are now young leaders.  Take Daniel Coleman for example.  After 14 years of civil war in Liberia with both parents dead, Daniel was placed in the care of My Father’s House – a Hope for the Nations partner.  There he received;

• security (housing, love, care, basic needs)
• capacity (education, emotional growth, vocational training)
• spiritual and life training.  

Daniel, now 23 years old, is a confident leader who is studying criminal law at university. 

Find out more about Daniel’s story here.

Hope for the Nations is all about orphan's and children at risk today becoming leaders in their communities tomorrow, just like Daniel.  

Many thanks to our dear partner, Provision of Hope (led by Karen Barkman), for its resolute and compassionate work in Liberia!

We did it with your generous donations!

Global Enrichment Foundation and Hope For the Nations want to say "thank you" for your help on our last Convoy For Hope.  We touched many lives and gave people hope for a better future.

The following is an excerpt from the 'field' about some orphanages that our GEF team was able to help out over the holidays:

"On the 25th of December 2011, with the help of Bani’Adam, the Convoy for Hope delivered 200 bags of assorted food and 16 cartons of cooking oil to the Nahrein Orphanage in Afgoye Corridor, about 18 miles south of Mogadishu. This area is controlled by rebels and therefore largely devoid of many aid agencies.

During initial convoy assessments, the GEF team discovered that the Nahrein Orphanage houses and cares for approximately 450 orphaned children, 170 of which are receiving basic education. The team also noted that although the orphanage received some support from the Diaspora, resources were very stretched and the children were undernourished.

On the final day of the 4th Convoy for Hope, the 26th of December 2011, food aid was delivered to the Elman Peace and Human Rights centre in Wadajir district, Umul Aisha Orphanage in Hamarweyne district, and the Halgan Orphanage in Dharkiinley district."

We couldn't have done it without you!

UPDATES:

The needs in the aftermath of Typhoon Sendong (Washi) are mounting as water, basic food supplies, medical care and counselling continue to be in desperate need. 

Fresh floods are making relief efforts more difficult.

Children are being impacted through dehydration, undernourishment, sickness, and trauma.

More than half of the populations of Cagayan De Oro and Iligan are homeless or displaced. 

Our partners are working hard to bring hope and help to the children and families affected.
