Hope International

As our vision to visit Rwanda grew beyond simply meeting sponsored children to connecting cultures, we teamed up with Hope International. HOPE has staff and clients in Kigali, Rwanda, where we'll be spending most of our time. We'll meet up with them and hear their stories so that we can provide HOPE with much-needed footage from the field.

Hope International empowers those living in need around the world to escape poverty by providing microloans, savings services, training, and mentoring to help people become self-sufficient. Working in 12 of the poorest, least-served countries in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, and the Caribbean, HOPE is a Christian faith-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focused on alleviating the many dimensions of poverty – physical, social, and spiritual – through microenterprise development.
