Hope For Life

Alex’s* story is a testament to the power of community and education. Separated from his father at a young age, Alex’s upbringing lacked the stability every child deserves. His mother, caught in the cycle of poverty and without access to educational opportunities, did her best to provide for her children. Their home, a small space shared by three, offered little escape from their daily struggles.

Forced to leave school, Alex’s dreams seemed out of reach. It was then that Hope for Life reached out to Alex and his family, offering a chance for him to return to school.
Through a holistic approach that included psychosocial support and educational interventions, Alex embraced education and excelled.

Through the generosity of donors, lives are transformed, and futures are rewritten. Together, we can continue to support children like Alex, creating a brighter tomorrow.

We have three timely needs from the Hope for Life team in Rwanda. Can you help?

Food Support for Families: Right now, the HFL team is providing six families with food for three months, such as rice, sorghum, cooking oil, beans, and porridge flour.
$47 covers the cost for one family's needs.

Empowering Youth Internships: Four youth—two mechanics, one mason, and one welder—are starting their three-month internships in Kigali.
$150 will cover the internship fee for one youth.

Emergency Shelter Relief: 3 families have been affected by recent flooding in Kigali and require immediate assistance.

It is estimated that there are 140 million orphans worldwide. But did you know that only 15.1 million are “true orphans,” meaning there are no living birth parents known? While this number is staggering, when viewed from an alternative vantage point, it means that 80 percent of children worldwide have at least one living birth parent. This number doesn’t take into account grandparents or other extended family members willing to care for the child.

Hope for Life is working towards a continuum of care for homeless and street-involved children and youth that prioritizes family reunification when possible, safe, and sustainable.
