We don’t come to DO, we come to BE.
Ouch!
I’ve been there. Done that. Glad my malaria medicine was working. BUT for many people they have no medicines and every 30 seconds a child dies from a mosquito bite!
Tragic.
Standing with our global partners can be as simple as a $10 donation to pay for malaria meds, or $30 to buy a mosquito net for them to sleep under.
No one and nothing is too small to make a difference.
Most of us have a room to sleep in, a bed to sleep on and we don’t have mosquitoes infecting us. For the students of Furaha High School, most have no bed at home, no bedrooms at home and there are mosquitoes all around.
The High School is the first place they will have a bed of their own – and have a mosquito net!
Go on – buy a brick or a bed and help empower some amazing students out of extreme poverty. Graduating students can pull their entire family out of extreme poverty.

It seemed like a step forward. the Guatemala government pulled their army soldiers off the streets as a sign of peace and progress. BUT – in Zone 18 where Esperanza para Guatemala are working, this is having serious ramifications.
The soldiers were the force that kept the zone from erupting in gang battles and daily gun deaths.
People are nervous, tense, waiting.
Pray a particular protection for Jose, his family and the staff and children of Esperanza.
The words of Mahatma Gandhi are poignant: “The future depends on what we do in the present.”
All of us want to live in a world where there is no injustice, and every child has the opportunities they need to succeed. Where there are no slums.
Join the movement, and make a difference today for the future.

Poverty is a brutal cycle that billions are trapped in. But we believe that not only CAN this change, but that it WILL. And YOU can make a difference.
Get a glimpse into life in extreme poverty by learning the story of Joshua, an orphan living in the Huruma slum of Nairobi, Kenya.
Our latest video shows the incredible progress made in the Huruma Slums by Furaha Community Foundation. What started off as tutoring for 40 children in extreme poverty has grown to schools that provide quality education for over 600 students, and assistance for thousands more!
Meet Bramwell, a student at Furaha school, hear his encouragement for other students, and his dreams for the future.
Meet Diana, and hear her story.
