Our MissionHOPE worldwide changes lives by harnessing the compassion and commitment of dedicated staff and volunteers to deliver sustainable, high-impact, community-based services to the poor and needy.

The King will reply, ‘Truly

I tell you, whatever you did

for one of the least of these

brothers and sisters of

mine, you did for me.’

– Jesus (Matthew 25:40 NIV)

Dear Friend,

2018 was a tremendous year for HOPE worldwide. We are so proud of the many who gave, served and worked tirelessly to help people in need around the world. If you contributed, volunteered or raised funds, you were part of the team bringing hope to so many. Children from Africa to Alaska now have a vision for their future. Volunteers from Cambodia to Kathmandu have loved and served people in need. From Boston to Brazil, the suffering have witnessed firsthand God’s love and concern. This year our team members gave food to the hungry, shelter to the homeless and clothing to the naked. We are honored to serve the poor, the vulnerable and the marginalized from every race, color and creed on every inhabited continent. Thank you for your support and your part on our team. Our strength is our volunteers – we are able to do what we do because we have ready, willing and able volunteers in so many cities worldwide. Our partners value us because they know if they need ‘boots on the ground’ HOPE worldwide can be there quickly.

As a faith-based organization dedicated to following the directive of Jesus to love our neighbors, we are so encouraged about the disaster response teams in hard-hit regions of North America and Indonesia. HOPE worldwide’s Global Disaster Response and Relief program brings hope and change to vulnerable communities through disaster preparedness and emergency relief. We also work to rebuild affected communities. The SPARK Academy in Houston has been a beacon of love to many children traumatized by the floods of Hurricane Harvey. The list of the many programs and volunteers who have impacted lives through their love and service is long and inspiring.

HOPE worldwide has responded to global natural disasters and provided necessary relief for twenty years. We have dedicated ourselves to three main areas of service: Volunteerism, Disaster Relief and Community Empowerment. Today, we serve more than 1.5 million people annually on every inhabited continent. Our volunteers serve in more than 60 countries. Our sustainable community programs, early childhood development training and ESL courses support those in need and prepare them for success.

The year 2018 gave us a great opportunity for service and love provided by our many volunteers around the world. We are grateful to be able to be part of the team that brings hope to the hopeless around the world.

Sincerely,

Robert Carrillo

President and CEO, HOPE worldwide

Jesus’ example is at the center of

everything we do. HOPE worldwide’s

staff and volunteers strive to imitate

His example of unconditional love and

compassion for the poor – without

regard to faith or background. After

more than 25 years, HOPE worldwide

continues to be a community dedicated

to serving, teaching and healing

families made vulnerable due to

poverty, disease or disaster, enabling

them to rise out of their desperate

situations. Together we are bringing

hope and changing lives for good.

Areas of Focus

HOPE worldwide – Areas of Focus 3


Volunteerism

Looking at his disciples, Jesus said: ‘Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.’

– Luke 6:20-21 (NIV)

“”

HOPE worldwide – Volunteer Corps 5

Spanning the globe with 28

different programs, HOPE

worldwide Volunteer Corps

mobilizes volunteers to care

for the most vulnerable among

us. We focus on high-impact,

sustainable programs that

provide a variety of services

from rehabilitation in disaster-

stricken communities to medical

services and healthcare training,

vocational training and social

services, sustainable agriculture

and community and leadership

development. Our volunteers

are incredibly diverse: they hail

from all continents and socio-

economic strata, and range in age

from teens to septuagenarians.

Our volunteers frequently return

to the same sites multiple times,

believing we receive as much as

we give.

Local HOPE worldwide entities

benefit from programs that educate

people in the coordination of global

service teams. As such, college

students train as Global Service

Interns (GSI) to run Volunteer Corps.

We have had over 70 graduates of

this training program. Part of our

mission is to inspire volunteers not

just to make service a once-in-a-

lifetime experience, but to instill a

love for it that transforms them into

lifelong advocates for the poor.

Recently HOPEww Volunteer Corps

(HVC) members traveled to New

Zealand and discovered that just

two weeks of involvement by 40

volunteers can make a significant

impact. Volunteers worked the

land, planted a vegetable garden

and built a greenhouse to aid

in the community’s agricultural

sustainability. They also connected

on a cultural level, seeking to learn

the values of the Maori community.

One area of emphasis at HVC is

the need for respectful service and

mutuality. We learn at least as much

as we teach. Volunteers in Auckland

have built a foundation for a strong

and sustainable relationship with

the local Maori community thanks

to the two weeks of effort by HVC

members. HVC’s goal is continued

service to the community and

the establishment of a long-term

and more comprehensive HOPE

worldwide assistance program.

Over 7,500 miles to the north,

The Gateway to the Arctic (G2A)

Camp Volunteer Corps program in

Alaska has had a distinct impact.

The program teaches hands-

on skills ranging from carpentry

and agriculture to life skills for

people with special needs. Those

participants with special needs are

paired with typically functioning

participants to learn and practice

these new skills for a period of time.

The result is a powerful partnership

and increased self-confidence.

At the camp young people like

Michael and Makayla experience

hands-on gardening, a variety of

fun-filled activities, and time spent in

nature. They also form lasting and

supportive friendships, all because

of the volunteers’ willingness to

serve. Thanks to HOPE worldwide

Volunteer Corps, many differently-

abled people in Alaska have caring

instruction, mentoring and an outlet

for outdoor fun.

VOLUNTEER CORPS

HOPE worldwide

In 2018, we had over 700 volunteers. Of those, roughly 200 were teens, 200 were campus students, 200 were singles, and another 100 were married people or families.


Adventure CorpsHOPE worldwide Adventure Corps is

a research-based leadership, survival

and service training experience in

Anchorage, Alaska. We believe that

the wilderness is the perfect training

ground for leadership instruction

and character development. We

reach out to unique individuals with

an adventurous spirit to experience

service in the wilderness. Volunteers

conduct wilderness training,

vocational services and community

development programs for kids and

young people with special needs. We

train leaders who will go back to their

communities and make a difference.

Campus ClubsHOPE worldwide Campus Clubs

are service clubs located in Texas,

Alaska, Oregon and Arizona with a

focus on college student volunteer

mobilization. Since our launch in July

2018, seven Campus Clubs have

been established and are actively

serving those in need. We inspire

and train college students in the US

to serve in their local communities

by helping them establish a

HOPEww Campus Club at their

university, and we provide ongoing

leadership training.

Fabrice Ntalindwa, a freshman at

The University of Texas at San

Antonio, joined a team serving in

Houston, Texas just weeks after

Hurricane Harvey devastated

the city. Later on in the following

semester, he joined the HOPEww

Campus Club at UTSA and became

an officer. He is now in charge of

creating service events for other

students to come and volunteer.

“I have learned that in order to summit, I have to climb above myself and participate in the ideas of others. I know myself better and have created an awareness of myself, my emotions and how to serve better!”

– Fabrice Ntalindwa

HOPE worldwide US operates

individual chapters in 117 cities

throughout the United States

and Puerto Rico; program

coordinators work with volunteers

who donate nearly 40,000 service

hours annually. The focus of these

local chapters is to serve the

needs of vulnerable populations

within a defined geographic area.

The goal is to mobilize as many

volunteers as possible to serve in

assorted sustainable programs,

and to form partnerships with

local businesses to provide a

variety of services. Volunteers

serve in nursing homes, medical

facilities, food pantries, homeless

shelters, Saturday Academies,

and after school and mentoring

programs. In the coming year,

our staff is preparing to launch

Early Childhood Development

and English Conversion Clubs

throughout the United States. This

year, over 975 people attended

“We Serve” workshops in seven

US cities. Volunteers of all ages,

from pre-teens and teens to college

students, single and married

adults and empty nesters, received

training in respectful, mutual and

sustainable ways to serve those in

need. In addition to ongoing service

programs, volunteers stepped up to

lend a hand quickly in the aftermath

of such devastating disasters as

hurricanes, wildfires and floods all

over the country.

With a mission of inspiring

and training young people for

meaningful service, US Youth

Programs operate principally

via two avenues: HOPEww

Scouts and the National Youth

Advisory Council (NYAC). Scout

troops currently serve in 31 US

cities. Troops are composed

of an average of 20 children

(K-8) and 35 parents, giving

us approximately 1,700 US

participants that meet and serve

together monthly.

NYAC concentrates on relationship-

focused Passion Projects. These

projects, student-inspired and

student-led, specifically target

community needs with sustainable

results. Each NYAC member designs

and leads both a fundraiser and an

ongoing Passion Project in their local

community. We also augmented our

capstone training component, The

Servant Leadership Academy, which

trains members to build and refine

sustainable community partnerships.

Nationwide, approximately 1,400

high school and campus volunteers

were mobilized by NYAC Passion

Projects.

Young people are also having an

impact on the world stage. For the

third consecutive year HOPEww

youth leaders participated in the

United Nations Compact for Young

People in Humanitarian Action.

NYAC members also served as

moderators for the Social Impact

Youth Summit hosted at Stanford

University by the UN Population

Fund, GOODdler and the Institute

for Evolutionary Leadership.

Karson Baldwin, NYAC member in

Cleveland, started a relationship-

based program called Oné Respé,

which is a Haitian greeting of

welcome that means “honor and

respect.” The program partners

American-born high school students

with immigrant and refugee youth

who have been in the US for less

than six months at the International

Newcomers Academy (INA). They

spend their time in friendship-

building activities and speaking

conversational English. Because

of their recent arrival to the US,

INA students have low English

proficiency. Many students, from

the Democratic Republic of Congo,

Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, the

Dominican Republic, El Salvador,

and Honduras, had schooling

interrupted in their countries. Some

had never even been to school.

None had an American friend before

this program began. According to

one INA teacher, “this authentic

purpose for using conversational

English with American peers has

been invaluable academically and

socially.” Students’ English reading

proficiency scores have improved

dramatically, something the school

attributes directly to the program.

American students are coming

to better understand immigration

and the global refugee crisis and

have grown to appreciate their new

friends’ funny, kind and curious

personalities, their hunger to learn

and eagerness to ask questions.

They have also come to respect the

newcomers for their strength and

resilience.

Global Disasters dominated the

world news in 2018. Floods,

hurricanes, earthquakes,

wildfires and volcanic eruptions

destroyed cities and devastated

populations. HOPE worldwide

quickly mobilized volunteers to

provide lifesaving service on

several continents.

Collaborating with local volunteers

and supporters, teams worked

together to make a lasting impact.

In North America alone, over 1,500

volunteers provided direct relief to

over 4,000 families.

At the global level, HOPE worldwide

continues to coordinate with

our global partners and relief

organizations. We consult with the

United Nations Economic and Social

Council (ECOSOC), the European

Union (EU) and the World Health

Organization (WHO).

Throughout Asia, HOPE worldwide’s

Global Disaster Response

program brings hope and change

to vulnerable communities with

disaster preparedness, emergency

relief and community rebuilding.

We deliver lifesaving services and

equip communities to reduce their

disaster risks. We also partner with

other agencies and organizations

to maximize impact and mobilize

volunteers.

In 2018, and in the wake of

devastating earthquakes and

floods, HOPE worldwide traveled

to 20 different sites and served

170,000 people in 20 disaster-

affected communities across the

globe by providing food, water,

shelter, healthcare, clothing and

psychosocial assistance. The

breakdown of supplies and services

is as follows:

• 35,558 lb of food

• 1,335 lb medical supplies

• 2,647 emergency shelters

• 1,019 hygiene kits

• 9,037 blankets

• 2,229 articles of clothing

• 53 water filters

• 13 latrines and water facilities

• 3 communal houses

• 1 three-room clinic

• 178 sessions of psychosocial

support activities (play, music, art

therapy)

GLOBAL DISASTER RESPONSE

HOPE worldwide – Global Disaster Response 13

Recently, the small village of Chhaimale,

Nepal was devastated by the magnitude

7.8 earthquake in Kathmandu. Eighty

percent of the houses in this small

pear farming village were destroyed

or severely damaged. After providing

lifesaving services in the initial

emergency period, HOPE worldwide,

in collaboration with HOPE worldwide

UK and HOPE worldwide Canada, also

helped build a community center that

aids in rebuilding the livelihood and

economy of Chhaimale’s citizens.

HOPE worldwide Global Disaster

Response teams also serve in North

America, South America and the

Caribbean. The year 2018 saw multiple

devastating disasters in this area of the

world, and volunteers were there to help.

In 2018, we partnered with Feed the

Children in two Florida panhandle

cities by providing a specially equipped

disaster response vehicle. The vehicle

was loaded with food and hygiene

products for over 1,000 families struck

by Hurricane Michael. Damage and

debris in Blountstown, Florida was

so severe, city officials canceled all

door-to-door Halloween activities.

Coming together with other charities,

HOPE worldwide and Feed the Children

parked the HOPE worldwide Global

Disaster Response trailer alongside

the Feed the Children semi-truck and

held a ‘trunk or treat’ event, distributing

food and hygiene products for families

throughout the area. Local churches

arranged a surprise visit from the

Florida State University Seminoles

Men’s Basketball and Baseball teams

who joined in the fun, handing out

candy and relief supplies, which made

the event even more special. A local

chamber of commerce member broke

down in tears of joy when witnessing

the event. “No one does this kind of

stuff for our community...every family

here thanks you.”

In response to the Vulcán de Fuego

eruption in Central America, HOPE

worldwide met the needs of vast

numbers of victims. We supplied

immediate relief with clean water,

medical care and temporary shelter.

In the wake of the displacement and

loss, mental health professionals also

provided counseling and therapy. With

this system, we have developed a multi-

faceted approach to disaster response

that promotes long-term healing.

HOPE worldwide’s Global Disaster Response

in the US had over

1,500volunteers who provided

direct relief to over

4,000 families

HOPE worldwide staff and volunteers served

170,000

people in 20 sites across the globe by providing food,

water, shelter, clothing, healthcare and psycho-

social care


Long-term healing is also a focus

in our US efforts. This year HOPE

worldwide received a $460,000 grant

from the American Red Cross for

the SPARK Academy in Houston,

Texas. SPARK stands for Special

Program for Arts Resilience for

Kids. Research shows that 12-18

months after a natural disaster is

the most vulnerable time for children

ages 5-12 to develop symptoms of

post-traumatic stress. SPARK uses

evidence-based research to develop

psychosocial activities that include

teaching character traits known to

increase resiliency.

Our curriculum provides a

confidence-building healing arts class

where children process loss and

gain confidence. The Champions of

Character class combines physical

activity with character-building

lessons. Our Theatre Expressions

class gives children a safe place

to express themselves. We also

incorporate a creative writing

segment that allows children to

process their thoughts about the

trauma they experienced in the

wake of a natural disaster.

We understand that natural disaster affects the whole family. Where most recovery programs focus on rebuilding after physical and structural damage, our program focuses on restoring psychological and emotional health. At the SPARK Academy, hundreds of families affected by Hurricane Harvey participate in the art, music and play program that provides children a safe place to talk and process emotional trauma brought on by the devastating hurricane.

The HOPE worldwide Community

Service Brigades are volunteer

teams that provide a wide range of

healthcare and medical services,

education, child development, social

services, disaster relief, recovery

and risk reduction and community

development and empowerment.

Community-based service brigades

build long-term partnerships with

local churches to equip them with the

tools needed to combat the effects of

extreme poverty in the communities

they serve. They conduct extended

programs for orphans and vulnerable

children. HOPE worldwide volunteers

provide direct relief and recovery,

and assist local HOPE worldwide

chapters, member organizations,

community agencies and church

partners. Currently, brigades serve

in Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico,

Puerto Rico, El Salvador and the

Ivory Coast. Over the past 10 years,

the Community Service Brigades

have provided approximately

36,000 patient visits and 58,000

prescriptions at free medical and

dental clinics throughout Central

America and Africa.

During an initial needs assessment

visit to San Pedro Sula, Honduras at

the end of 2009, HOPEww directors

saw firsthand the vast scope of

medical and dental needs of families

in Central America. They determined

that trustworthy outpatient medical

care should be the focus of the

brigades. Most residents in this

country earn less than $300 per

month and cannot afford access to

quality and reliable medical care. As

we head into our tenth year, we look

back and see that the goal to provide

a continuum of care for thousands

of patients has been accomplished.

Chronic diseases like diabetes, heart

disease and hypertension – as well

as frequently undiagnosed parasite

infestation – have been treated with

trustworthy medicine and follow-up

medical care.

Community Service Brigades


Over the past 10 years, the Community Service Brigades have provided approximately 36,000 patient visits and 58,000 prescriptions at free medical and dental clinics throughout Central America. Serving in the same communities for ten years has ensured a continuum of care for the CSB patients, who receive examinations and treatment that includes over-the-counter and prescription medicine as well as multivitamins and medications. Many of these patients, chronically sick and suffering with diabetes, hypertension, GERD and parasite infestation formerly went without benefit of this desperately needed medicine because they could not afford it for themselves or their children.


And if you spend yourselves on behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.

Community Empowerment

HOPE worldwide has established

and managed medical facilities and

clinics that provide excellent and

compassionate medical care to

those in need. The Sihanouk Hospital

Center of HOPE (SHCH) in the capital

city of Phnom Penh and the Sonja

Kill Memorial Hospital (SKMH) in

the southern city of Kampot are two

centers where Cambodian citizens

can receive high quality affordable

medical care. Since 1996, HOPE

worldwide’s medical work has

offered over 2.2 million consultations

to the poor and helped train over

5,000 medical professionals.

We provide high quality and affordable

medical care to Cambodians,

regardless of economic status. We

also provide meaningful training and

experience to Cambodian medical

professionals. In 2018, HOPEww

programs treated more than 220,000

patients. We expect the patient count to

increase in 2019.

As a result of HOPE worldwide’s efforts,

mother and child neonatal health in

Cambodia continues to improve. At

the beginning of 2018, the maternity

department averaged just over one

delivery per day. This number tripled

by the end of the year. Because of

the impact of the Sonja Kill Memorial

Hospital in Kampot, the hospital

welcomed over 1,000 successful live

births. The current birth rate averages

over 80 healthy babies per month. The

Women’s Health Center sees about

200 expectant mothers per month for

prenatal care. In the case of premature

deliveries, the Neonatal Intensive Care

Unit saves the lives of mothers and

children. Over 100 babies have received

lifesaving care in the hospital NICU in

the past year.

Located at 22 sites in 7 cities

throughout South Africa, the

HOPE worldwide Early Childhood

Development (ECD) programs

focus on care and education for

orphans and vulnerable children,

social services, and volunteer

mobilization.

Research shows that 90% of a

child’s brain is fully developed by the

age of five. This makes the need for

early child development imperative,

and we work with both parents and

preschools to provide vulnerable

children with the best possible start

in life. With this goal in mind, we

established a new HOPE worldwide

ECD network for preschools. In

2018, over 25,000 children were

served and supported. We are

registered as an accredited training

organization by The Education,

Training and Development Practices

Sector Education and Training

Authority of South Africa.

HOPE worldwide SA is partnering

with KFC-Add Hope, a non-profit

foundation, to make a difference,

and we recently hosted the global

CEO of YUM! Brands, Greg Creed,

his leadership team and their South

African counterparts at one of the

many ECD centers we support. The

food company provides important

nutritional support to help students

learn. This support also frees up

funds to support teachers and

expand the services the centers can

provide. The program reaches over

18,000 children every month.

Worldwide effort and support

produces local results. Joyce

Nxumalo, a 59-year-old

grandmother from Daveyton, was

a member of a Parent Support

Group who later pursued training for

Development. Equipped with a

quality education, she now serves

as a community worker for HOPE

In Chicago, HOPE worldwide

initiated the Skyline After School

Program in 2018 to serve the

local community. Staff members

and volunteers empower middle

school students with the skills

required to succeed in school, live

up to their full potential, and in

turn serve others. At Skyline, kids

receive mentoring and assistance

to discover their hidden talents.

Volunteers, including college

students from the neighborhood,

offer homework tutoring, conduct

Social Emotional Learning-based

discussions and teach a variety

of creative classes, such as art

and stand-up comedy. Students

are showing significant emotional

growth. In the first semester of

programming, participants showed

a 23 percent improvement in

healthy decision-making skills as a

result of the guidance and support

of the staff and volunteers.

Many young people from

neighborhoods afflicted with poverty,

crime and addiction have difficult

home lives with little emotional

support. Skyline has become a safe

space for them. When asked recently

about a highlight of the program, one

girl excitedly replied, “I had a tough

Thanksgiving break because of some

things that happened with my family,

but I’m happy now because I get to

be around my friends. Everyone at

Skyline helped me out today. That

cheered me up.”

The Procurement Department of

HOPE worldwide partners with

other non-profit organizations

to provide in-kind donations for

medical facilities and disaster

relief. Procurement has provided

annual support in Cambodia for

the Sihanouk Hospital Center of

HOPE (SHCH) in Phnom Penh

and Sonja Kill Memorial Hospital

in Kampot since they opened.

Procurement also funds the

Community Service Brigades in

Tijuana, Mexico and throughout

Central America. The primary

focus is funding healthcare and

medical services, disaster relief,

recovery and risk reduction. Most

importantly, Procurement works

to build a gifts-in-kind (GIK)

program to benefit men, women

and children worldwide living in

extreme poverty and in dire need

of medical services.

Since the inception of the

program in August 1996, tens

of thousands of people have

been direct beneficiaries of the

medicine, medical supplies,

nutritional supplements, hygiene

products and foodstuffs provided

by HOPE worldwide and its

partners. Procurement has

worked closely with our key

partners such as AmeriCares,

Direct Relief International, Heart

to Heart, Blessings International,

Feed the Children and Wine to

Water. Through these generous

partners, HOPE worldwide’s Global

Procurement Department has

secured over $11 million in in-kind

contributions. These gifts have

saved lives around the world.

Notably, Procurement has secured

over $240,000,000 in medicine,

medical supplies and equipment for

hospitals in Cambodia and medical

work worldwide since 1996. In 2018,

together with our dedicated partners

AmeriCares and Direct Relief

International, we facilitated donations

of $10 million in GIK primarily

benefiting the HOPEww healthcare

facilities in Cambodia. We also joined

forces once again with the Disaster

Relief and Recovery Program, and

in response to the hurricanes on the

Eastern US shores and Indonesia,

we were able to provide foodstuffs

and health and hygiene kits for

thousands of victims.

After Hurricane Florence wreaked

havoc in many parts of Myrtle

Beach, South Carolina, HOPE

worldwide partnered with the owner

of a local hotel to provide housing,

food and medical care for 250

people who had lost their homes

and possessions. HOPE worldwide

provided hundreds of pounds of

hygiene kits, foodstuffs and water

filters for these families. The families

expressed how grateful they were for

the support after this devastation.
