Give and See the Difference
You should never have to guess where your donation goes.
You should never feel disconnected from the impact you’re making.
When you donate to The Hope Foundation of Kenya, your generosity strengthens churches, equips students, feeds families, and shares the hope of Jesus in communities we have walked with for decades.
Sponsor a Child
One child. One relationship. A lifetime of impact.
Many child sponsorship programs in Kenya feel distant. Ours is built on long-term presence and deep local partnerships.
When you sponsor a child through The Hope Foundation of Kenya, you support a real story: a boy or girl with a name, family, and future that can look dramatically different—because of you.
For $50 per month, your sponsorship helps provide:
- Christ-centered education
- Two nutritious meals per day
- Basic medical care
- Ongoing spiritual discipleship
- Consistent mentorship and relational care

Send a Letter
Use the “Mailbox” feature in our student database to:
- Send email letters directly to your child
- Receive scanned handwritten responses
- Print and save letters for your family
You’ll receive an email notification whenever your child writes back.
Give a Gift
Send a gift at any time of year: birthdays, Christmas, or other milestones. Gifts are purchased locally in Kenya to support the local economy and ensure cultural appropriateness. When your child receives the gift, you’ll get a photo to share in the moment.
You may also provide a food bundle for your child’s family, including essential items such as flour, rice, beans, oil, sugar, and soap.

Fund a Project
Strengthen entire communities—including your sponsored child’s hometown—by funding a specific project, ranging from water wells to church buildings.
Fund a Project
Child sponsorship programs aren’t for everybody. Some donors prefer to meet specific, high-impact needs. When you fund a project, you strengthen entire communities at once.
Projects are identified by leaders who live and serve in these communities—not from a distance.
A Note on Online Giving
When giving online, you’ll see an optional processing fee that helps cover transaction costs. This allows more of your support to go directly toward ministry needs. You may choose whether or not to include this amount.

Clean Water Well $3,000
The burden of collecting water falls on the women and children of a village. Many have to walk miles to the nearest water source, which might be a stagnant pool or polluted river. We are working with local Kenyan churches to solve this problem by digging, providing pumps, and helping to maintain wells for their community.
Disaster Relief Any amount
Donations will be used to help communities recover from famine, flood, natural disasters, and other similar needs.
