Hope Without Borders has grown significantly in the last several years, but our mission remains the same—empowering people and transforming communities. We help the needy and vulnerable change their lives as they learn new skills, technologies, and capabilities. When someone learns a new skill, they teach someone else, and in the end, you have helped entire communities.
We are about community development, whether in America or abroad. Many in despair have "basic needs" such as clean water, safe sanitation, nutritious food, health-dental care, adequate shelter and education, which many of us take for granted. We empower, inspire, and resource individuals and communities in need, starting with their strengths, listening, learning, and working together on life-changing sustainable development initiatives.
Community development ideas flourish, but the landscape is littered with numerous failed agency, government, and organization projects that have devastatingly harmed the most needy. We believe that by working and serving together, we can change the lives of the needy worldwide, spreading hope one person and one community at a time.
Our Mission/Goals
To help developing communities interested in partnering work on projects to achieve sustainable community development. Effective partnering requires developing communities to be actively involved in all phases, including planning, project decision-making, innovative approaches, creative alternatives, appropriate technologies, mobilizing local-global resources-funding, implementation, and monitoring outcomes to integrate local Indigenous and breakthrough external technical-social-cultural solutions. Developing communities must supply a portion of the funding and/or labor in initiating, planning, designing, implementing, and monitoring projects to take ownership and ensure the continuation of program and project successes.
