Give a gift of hope to your brothers and sisters around the world in honor of Valentine's Day. And don't forget to send a special card to your loved one!
Hearing aids make it possible for children with hearing loss to fully participate in school. Children and families also learn how to use and care for their hearing aids.
Poor women and children are exploited by human traffickers. Kits for trafficking survivors provide a month’s supply of food, medicine, bedding, clothing and hygiene items.
In poor communities, people with disabilities are often invisible and isolated, with limited opportunities to overcome physical challenges or participate in community life. A wheelchair can open doors to education, jobs and socialization that are crucial to well-being.
Raising bees can be very lucrative and requires little space. With a beehive and a little training, a family can create a successful honey business.
A household garden provides important nutritional variety to poor families. Catholic Relief Services teaches families how to build keyhole gardens, raised-bed gardens that are specially designed to maintain nutrient-rich soil and stay productive during winter months. They are also easy to tend, even for people with limited mobility.
Quality seeds become quality crops that resist drought, pests and disease. Seeds fight hunger through the promise of vital nutrition, good health and lasting food security.
A Gift of Hope represents an inspirational way for you to make a life-changing difference for families and communities around the world. Simply choose a gift that will help save, protect and transform the lives of our most vulnerable brothers and sisters–and then, choose a special card to personalize and let your loved one know you’ve given a Gift of Hope in their name.
