This year, Children’s HopeChest marks 30 years of transforming lives and empowering children and families around the world. As we look back on three decades of growth and progress, we’re more committed than ever to building sustainable change. This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to be part of the next chapter in our mission to create lasting, measurable impact.
Giving Tuesday is a global day of generosity where millions of people unite to support the causes that matter most. Your donation today will directly support programs that help children and families break the cycle of poverty, access education, build careers, and create economic opportunities that last.
Your Gift Builds Tangible Impact: Changing Lives Across the Globe
Mehret’s Story: Overcoming Barriers, Achieving Dreams
Mehret was just a young girl when she faced the sudden loss of her father. With her mother struggling to provide for their family, enrolling in school seemed out of reach—until she joined our Merkato CarePoint in Ethiopia. Through the support of partners like you, Mehret received the school supplies, monthly fees, and the resources she needed to stay in school.
Isaac’s Dream: From Building Skills to Building a Future
Isaac grew up facing significant challenges, but through the skills training he received at his CarePoint, his future began to take shape. Isaac learned the trade of building construction, and today, he’s an entrepreneur with a clear vision: to start his own business, providing for his family and continuing his education.
Your gift this Giving Tuesday will equip more young people like Isaac with the tools and training they need to not only gain meaningful employment but also to contribute to the local economy and create opportunities for others.
Martina’s Story: Empowering Women Through Chicken Projects
In Guatemala, women like Martina are using the resources provided by our Chicken Projects to build economic independence. By raising chickens for eggs, Martina can support her family, pay for her children’s education, and even reinvest in her small business. This initiative is a powerful example of how empowering women leads to sustainable change within families and communities.
Martina’s story is one of many demonstrating how your support gives women the means to provide for their families, break the cycle of poverty, and create lasting economic opportunities.
This Giving Tuesday, your gift can change lives. Every dollar you give today goes toward tangible, long-term solutions—whether it’s ensuring access to education, providing vocational training, or empowering women to become entrepreneurs. Give today to help children like Mehret, Isaac, and Martina achieve their dreams—and build stronger, thriving communities for tomorrow.
