For Giving Tuesday this year, we want to bless 450 families of our Grace Schools students with corn seed for their gardens. Your gift of $15 will purchase one bag of seeds.

The theme for our 2024 Reunion Small Business Training program was Never Give Up!

We are so glad to have the shouts and songs, activity and excitement of school starting filling our campus again!

We are off to a great start on our Surgery Center! After two years of fundraising, we’ve broken ground and are raising the walls on this incredible project.

It has been a very difficult growing season in Malawi. The harvest in our community is about 40% of what families normally harvest. Many families are struggling to figure out how to keep their families from starvation this year.

The small business training program on October 16-18, 2023, gathered a group of 15 participants, among them three were carpenters trained through our COH vocational program

We are so grateful to celebrate another successful HundredX campaign this year!

Mothers are the heart of our families and communities. We often say, if Mama’s not happy, no one is happy.  This is not a Mother’s Day post, but thank you, Moms, we love you!  What I really want to talk about today is the huge problem of women dying during childbirth.

Our Preschool and Kindergarten students entered the ECDC for the first time Tuesday, February 14th, and are already loving their new classrooms and a space dedicated to them for learning, playing and growing!

As we move into February and the rains continue this rainy season, the cholera outbreak continues in Malawi.

Please join us in praying today for the people of Malawi. There is a growing outbreak of Cholera in Malawi. It has now reached our community in Dowa.

Thanks to the incredibly generous support of our donors, we’ve been able to not only fix our water problem, but work out a long term solution for adequate water for our entire campus! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

One of the cool ways we get to support our partners in Malawi, the Grace Alliance Church, is by helping to put roofs on churches. Here’s the story of a church roof that is going on right now!

Development vs Relief. One of the age old challenges of development organizations is helping communities understand the difference between Relief and Development. We’ve all heard the adage “teach a man to fish”. At Circle of Hope, we are committed to the value of education and development.

Today, our well is 10 years old and has run into issues. The world has continued to develop and our campus has thrived over the years but the NEED for clean water is very much a real and present/ emergent need for this community, and everyone around the world.

Our students are back at school and ready to learn! We are welcoming 650 primary students back to Grace Primary School this week. Our teachers have prepared awesome lesson and some super fun extracurricular activities for the students. We are off to a great start on a new year!

**Update** We are so pleased with the end result of our HundredX campaign! 267 people participated in sharing feedback raising $19,618 for our Surgery Center. Together with $5,650 raised in cash, our total for the campaign is $25,268! Thank you so much to all our donors and supporters who participated in this awesome program!

Not the Original Plan - for a few years now, we have had on our schedule to start raising money for the Early Childhood Development Center in Fall of 2022.

Sometimes God has a better plan!
