2023 Impact - 423,726 Lives Transformed

2023 impact

2023 has been a wild ride on the international front as the people of Haiti have endured continual oppression from the gangs running the country. As difficult as that has made our ability to work in the midst of these circumstances, as well as the cultural divide between Haiti and the Dominican Republic, it has also created new opportunities to serve the most vulnerable.

Over the last year, you have been a part of changing the lives of 423,726 people across Haiti and the Dominican Republic (let that settle in—because it’s so important to grasp). It’s been an incredible year of ministry because you have answered the call so well. In fact, this year, our 25th in ministry, has been one of the most impactful years yet. Your faithful support has been a tangible representation of God’s grace to men, women, and children across the island.

You’ll hear more about this in the coming days, but the vision of Mission of Hope to see life transformation for every man, woman, and child remains strong. In fact, our vision has grown to One Island: One Mission.

All of this is because of you. You’ve driven advancement in education, nutrition, church advancement, and medical care among the people of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Here’s what you’ve been able to help accomplish through Mission of Hope this year.

2023 impact

Thank you for your investment in the people of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. God has multiplied those gifts innumerably, and we trust He will continue to do the same in the years to come as we continue to cover the entirety of the island. And we could not be more excited!

Though together we’ve accomplished much thus far, so much more remains to be done. And a growing mission requires growing resources for its fulfillment. Would you prayerfully consider making a year-end investment into this vision to scale the ministries over the entire island? Would you also consider sharing this with someone else you know who might also prayerfully consider partnering with us in the days to come?

We are thankful for you, and we are excited to celebrate the incredible things God will accomplish through our partnership in the days ahead!

Seen at Last: How Compassion Changed One Boy’s Life

By Mackenzie Bartolome • February 10, 2026
He was only thirteen when an accident changed everything. In the Dominican Republic, a young boy, Binsley, was left paralyzed with no access to medical care and no one to turn to. His only family—his two brothers—loved him but had no resources to help. Without treatment, food, or proper care, his condition worsened, and painful wounds began to form as he lay waiting for help that never seemed to come. That changed when Pastor Carlos, a local pastor traveling with a Mission of Hope team, met him and immediately recognized the urgency of his situation. Through his leadership and connection with our Community Engagement team, care began—consistent, compassionate, and life-giving. Because of faithful support, Binsley now receives regular medic al care, nutritious food, clean clothing, wound treatment, and physical therapy in La Joya. While he remains paralyzed, his health has stabilized, his pain has lessened, and he is no longer facing his journey alone. For the first time in months, there is hope. Your generosity made this possible. Because you chose to give, a young boy was seen, cared for, and reminded that his life matters. And he is not the only one. There are many others praying for help—and through your continued partnership, hope is reaching them too.

A Mother’s Path to Hope

By Mackenzie Bartolome • February 10, 2026
In January, Klèb Manman continued to grow in Cap-Haïtien, with three active groups and the joyful beginning of a new one. These groups are more than meetings; they are safe spaces where mothers find encouragement, skills, and hope for a better future. In December, one young mother joined Klèb Manman. She is navigating motherhood at a very young age, carrying both the deep love for her child and the heavy responsibility of providing for her baby. After one Klèb Manman session, she approached our Women Empowerment director, Madame Rosealure, quietly and said, “Mrs., please, can I talk with you?” When Madame Roselaure said yes, she shared her dream: she wanted to start a small business so she could care for her child with dignity. Madame Roselaure shared that she did not have the financial ability to help right away, but she promised to pray with her and to trust God to make a way. The following month, moved by her courage and determination as a young mother, Madame Roselaure decided to use her own money to purchase materials so she could learn how to make liquid soap. This brave mother took that opportunity and turned it into action. She made the soap, sold it, and reinvested part of the income by buying more supplies so she could continue her business. Step by step, she began building a path toward independence and stability for herself and her baby. This story reflects the heart of Klèb Manman. Through manual activities and practical support, mothers, many of whom are navigating motherhood at an extremely young age, are gaining skills that empower them economically and emotionally. This kind of support restores hope, strengthens confidence, and helps mothers provide for their families while believing in a brighter future.
