HELP A CHILD ESCAPE POVERTY FOR $1 PER DAY

With a gift of just $1 a day, you can ensure that a child receives nutritious meals, clean water, clothing, and a safe environment where they can flourish. Through our Angels of Hope program, you also provide access to education, emotional and psychological support, while empowering them with independence and lifelong skills. Long-lasting change and poverty reduction are impossible without ever addressing the cycle of intergenerational poverty.

From Despair to Academic Achievement to Self-reliance

Many of the children in Angels of Hope come to the program from families that have been trapped in poverty for generations. For three vulnerable children—David, Astre, and Madelyn—poverty once seemed like an inescapable reality. However, after joining the Angels of Hope program, their life prospects completely turned around. Achieving such remarkable results takes years of nurturing and dedication, made possible by a network of deeply invested donors who aren't afraid to step up.
