It's easy and intuitive and allows you to personalize your campaign—we promise! The platform will walk you through each of the simple steps. (learn more: hopeforlife.us/getinvolved)

When you tap into your social circles, you help us reach potential new donors who may not have heard of Hope for Life before. This broadens our base of community support, helps Hope for Life increase awareness, and raises more money with less direct effort. This efficiency allows us to allocate more resources directly to our programs and services, amplifying our overall impact.

Not everyone has the financial means to donate, but many have the time, passion, and aptitude to encourage others to give. Peer-to-peer and team fundraising mobilizes these supporters, allowing them to contribute significantly to our mission through their advocacy and enthusiasm.

Our Story

What would you do if you heard that 11 of your friends were in prison, simply for having no place to sleep?

That was the dilemma Hope for Life’s founders faced in 2009. While interning in Kigali, Rwanda, they met a group of street boys, ages 5-17, and began bringing them food and washing their clothes – earning the name, “Mother.” While back in Washington state, they were devastated to learn from a Rwandan friend that the boys had been arrested and were living in an overcrowded prison full of violent adults. Lice crawled over the mattresses. Meals came once per day. The water was dirty, and there was no toilet or latrine.

They knew they had to do something. The only way that the children could be released was to a home, so they searched for a local non-profit, but couldn’t find anything with the right capacity. All three founders felt encouraged by God to start a grassroots organization to equip children with the resources they needed to escape homelessness and change their futures.
