Welcome to Hope for Kids!
We are Christians committed to giving hope to orphans and vulnerable children living in desperate situations around the world. We believe that we are called to "Seek justice, encourage the oppressed; defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow" (Isaiah 1:17).
Our vision is of a world where every child grows up in a loving family with the opportunity to reach their full potential. We seek to bring lasting change through the care that we provide. We accomplish this through our Children's Homes, Care Centres, Schools and community programmes.
Our 2011 Trustees Annual Report and Accounts has been submitted to the Charity Commission. Download it here.
Our South Sudan Appeal - an Update
We would like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone that has donated to help us expand our work in South Sudan.
We are thrilled to report that more than £8,000 has been raised towards care of the children - like Deng (pictured right) - and a further £10,000 towards construction of the Children's Home we have planned for the town of Wau! This is absolutely amazing!
South Sudan continues to face a humanitarian disaster. Ethnic violence is rampant; tensions with neighbouring Sudan are creating fear of war; and there is a high risk of famine. The situation facing children in South Sudan is critical.
We encourage you to continue with us in prayer for this troubled nation. And if you would still like to partner with us and donate to help save the life of a child in South Sudan, it is not too late to do so!
