A huge thank you to Beth for opening up her beautiful garden and hosting a fantastic garden party in support of Hope365! 🌸✨

Thanks to Beth’s hard work and the incredible generosity of everyone who attended, the event raised an amazing £450.

Every penny raised goes directly toward transforming the lives of vulnerable children in Ethiopia, helping provide safe shelter, education and hope for a brighter future.

Thank you to Beth and to everyone who came along and supported! 💚

⚫️POVERTY ⚫️

Poverty in Shashemene affects many families. With limited jobs, rising costs and ongoing economic pressures, many households struggle to provide for themselves. When families are struggling children can end up on the Street fending for themselves.

Sponsoring a child through Hope365 can help prevent them leaving the home and ending up in dangerous situations on the Street. It provides their family with stability through education, food and ongoing family support.

Sponsor a child today and help them to thrive 👇

❤️ GIVING HOPE ❤️

We treasure each child in our projects, wanting to show them they are loved and valued by God.

That’s why, through practical support, counselling and education, we want to give every child a hope for their future. Knowing that their sponsor believes in them can give a child the confidence to dream again.

Through sponsorship, children can experience consistent love, encouragement and opportunities they may never have thought possible.

Hope changes lives, and sponsorship can play a significant part in transforming a child's life.

While in Ethiopia, Josh clicked instantly with Nasir, who was always by his side playing games. When Josh decided to become Nasir’s sponsor, Nasir was over the moon when he told him! But Josh also noticed Nasir’s brother, Abdu, sitting on the steps nearby, still waiting for a sponsor.

Right then and there, Josh decided to sponsor Abdu too!

But Josh’s journey didn't end there. Josh also met Gutama at the Hope365 Academy, a quiet, observant boy who loves to learn. Gutama reminded Josh of himself when he was that age, and Josh knew he wanted to support him as well. "When Gutuma was asked about how he made it to school, he said he woke at 6am every morning and ran to school. This really touched me as he was always still smiling.”

Today, Josh sponsors all three boys!

You don't have to sponsor three children to make a difference, sponsoring just one child can change everything.

Amazing progress is being made on the shower and toilet facilities at our school. Here’s an update taken a few weeks ago from our Director Brook. We can’t wait for the transformation this will make for all our boys and girls at Hope365 💚

💚 ONE TO ONE 💚

Our Child Sponsorship Programme is built around a genuine one-to-one connection between each sponsor and the child they support.

Every child has just one sponsor, creating a unique relationship and ensuring that your support is directly connected to their individual needs and circumstances.

Through regular updates, stories and shared information, you can follow the journey of the child you are supporting and see the difference your commitment is making.

Your monthly sponsorship helps provide practical support to your child and their family in the form of education, clothes, clean water and other needs that might arise.

Sponsorship is a personal, meaningful way to stand alongside one child and help them have the opportunity to grow, learn and thrive.

You can become the personal sponsor for a child today 👇
