No MELONcholy Here

Friends of Hope,

After a very exuberant welcome that involved 100 staff and students showing up to greet us at the airport, and one broken down bus, we arrived at our friend Joseph’s home in Liberia around midnight. 

The very next day, Abu’s father, Mr. Kamara, showed up (unexpectedly, and from a long distance) to Joseph’s home. He brought with him four melons to express his deep gratitude that his son, Abu, who has been waiting for the opportunity, is now able to attend university.

We shared tears and melons and gratitude for the generosity of the Williams Friendship Fund for making it possible for Abu to attend university and for all of you who helped him get to that place. 

Together, we are The Hope Project.

And They're Off

Friends of Hope,

In a little more than 27 hours our Board President, Michael Nash, and Executive Director, Jackie Frazier, will be arriving in Liberia. 
 
Over the next 10 days they will be meeting with staff and students of Hope International and getting to see first-hand all that your continued generosity has made possible. 

They look forward to sharing with you and celebrating what 15 years of Hope looks like.
