About HopeHand
Creating lasting change in communities worldwide since 2014.
Empowering Communities
“To empower underserved communities through education, clean water access, and sustainable development — creating lasting change that transforms generations.”
HopeHand was founded in 2014 by a group of passionate humanitarians who saw the need for effective, community-driven aid. We've since raised over $5 million and impacted more than 50,000 lives across 12 countries.
We believe in empowering communities, not creating dependency. Our programs are designed in partnership with local leaders and are built to be self-sustaining, ensuring impact that lasts long after we leave.
Our Values
The principles that guide everything we do.
Transparency
85% of every dollar goes directly to programs. We publish detailed financial reports and impact metrics quarterly.
Community-Led
Local communities lead the way. We listen, support, and amplify — never impose solutions from outside.
Sustainability
Every program is designed to be self-sustaining, building local capacity and long-term resilience.
