ABOUT OUR CHARITY

Hope for Children (HOPE) is a small and growing charity that helps some of the most disadvantaged children in the World. HOPE works in 10 countries across Africa, Asia and Europe, working in areas largely unreached by other charities. Its mission is to provide practical support, such as education and healthcare, to improve children's quality of life, advance their rights and give them a better future. For HOPE, no effort is too big, no need is too small. This year alone HOPE has supported over 70,000 children.

HOPE was founded in 1994 with a very specific ethos; to keep costs low, ensuring supporters' donations go directly to children who need it. It achieves this with the help of corporate support and thanks to the generosity of its volunteers who give both their time and money. This ethos remains at the forefront of HOPE's work, enabling it to offer crucial support to those that need it the most.

Our Mission

* To improve the quality of life and advance the rights of children.
* To bring about change for good on behalf of children and families, and encourage them to participate in processes which enhance their equality, self-reliance and long term sustainable development.
* Wherever possible to provide practical support which allows children to grow up within their own families and communities.

Our Aims

Hope for Children (HOPE) is a non-sectarian, non-political and non-profit making organisation. HOPE is accountable through its constitution to its members and an Executive Committee of Trustees.

HOPE's aims and objectives are to help disabled, orphaned, poor and exploited children, in particular those living in developing countries. This is achieved through providing, promoting and advancing children’s rights to basic necessities, including education and health care, aimed at sustaining their long term development.
