Children’s HopeChest is pioneering sustainable development projects through our CarePoint model that we believe is the future for nonprofit engagement. We are thrilled to be on the frontlines of this effort to empower local communities with the tools, infrastructure, and resources they need to break the cycle of poverty and build a better future. Rather than just hearing about the work, YOU will get to be on the ground and meet the people who are actively involved in transforming their communities with your help.

- Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs) that help people experiencing poverty build financial stability
