Hosanna Emmanuel CarePoint

Hosanna Emmanuel CarePoint is directed by the Emmanuel United Church located in the Hosanna region, 140 miles southeast of the capital city, Addis Ababa. It is located in close proximity to Hosanna Emmanuel CarePoint. Bridging these two CarePoints is bringing two different church denominations together in unity for the children — and ultimately for the cause of reaching the community!

The church oversees community-based intervention projects that benefit those who face the trials of poverty. Many who are employed make less than one dollar a day. A high percentage of unemployment contributes to the lack of interest in educating the young. Children are sent to work to bring home a meager income to supplement the needs of their families. Both the lack of sanitation and poor hygiene has created an ongoing crisis of sickness and disease.

Yet despite these hurdles, Hosanna Emmanuel serves as a drop-in center, a safe place where children in need can come to receive discipleship and care.

Empower a Child at Hosanna Emmanuel

Empowering a child is one of the most personal ways that you can make an impact on global poverty. It is more than providing for their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. When you sponsor a child, you build a relationship that shows that child they are valuable, worth loving, and worth investing in.

Your sponsorship is the starting point of a journey that equips vulnerable children, their families, and their communities to create sustainable transformation. When you sponsor a child with HopeChest, you are not just supporting one child — you are helping transform entire communities.

Fund a Project at Hosanna Emmanuel

HopeChest’s approach to alleviating poverty is asset-based, because we believe that in every place on earth there are resources, not only for surviving, but for thriving and succeeding. Local leaders tell us what they do have instead of what they don’t have, and we walk with them to see their vision for their community come to fruition through development projects.

Your meaningful gift to fund a project at Hosanna Emmanuel CarePoint is transformational rather than transactional. It promotes empowerment rather than dependence. Your support for these projects will go a long way as, together, we invest in holistic and sustainable solutions that address the root issues of poverty.
