Give a Christmas Gift Bag to a Haitian Child!

Haiti remains a top priority for Hope Force in the year ahead. We need your prayers for the courage, faith and humility required to see Hope Force put on a firm, stable and favorable footing in this devastated country. The Child Sponsorship Program is steadily growing and we are now more than halfway to our goal of supporting every vulnerable family in central Sous Savanne.

Hope Force invites you to give an added blessing to a child in Sous Savanne by sending a Christmas Gift Bag. Our field team will deliver this during our December deployment. The average family in Sous Savanne lives a very humble life. A small gift for us becomes a huge gift to them. We hope that you will enjoy the opportunity to assemble this simple gift package. All items should be packed in a one-gallon Zip-Lock bag. Here are suggested items:

-Anti-bacterial bar soap
-Toothbrush
-Basic school supplies
-A small, durable toy
-Underwear
-Hair clips or jump rope (for the girls)
-Small games (eg: dominoes)   

Please make sure that the Hygiene Gift Bags reach us by November 19-? our office address is: Hope Force International, 7065 Moores Lane, Suite 200, Brentwood, TN 37027. 

Special Note: You do not have to be a registered child sponsor to participate in the Christmas Gift Bag initiative. But we do hope that you will consider supporting one of the Hope Force children as part of the Child Sponsorship Program. The monthly pledge amount is $29. This provides basic food and hygiene supplies on a regular basis for each child, benefiting not only them but their families as well. The program also includes community health education, clean water, and permanent housing projects in collaboration with other partners.

Together, we've provided emergency shelter for hundreds of people and monthly food assistance to over 70 families through the Child Sponsorship Program; this translates into nearly 500 people.If you would like to sponsor a child in Haiti today, please click here to make a pledge.  

The village of Sous Savanne is in a rural setting --  even though the homes are small, a number of the 364 families lost loved ones due to falling debris and collapsing buildings. It is estimated that more than 90% of the dwellings in this region of the country were destroyed on January 12th.

If you don't have time to assemble a Christmas Gift Bag, you can place an order and Hope Force will take care of the purchasing and assembling. You can give online making note of your gift designation or send a check to our head office. Please note "Christmas Gift Bag" when giving. Our staff can purchase and assemble these for a donation of $25.

Thank you for your continued commitment to partner with us at Hope Force in service to "the least of these". Click here for the Hope Force 'Christmas in Haiti' flier.
