We Are Not Leaving: One Mission

ONE MISSION

This is an important update regarding Mission of Hope’s ongoing efforts to support our brothers and sisters in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Recently, the Haitian government requested our assistance in providing critical food and aid to some of the country's most vulnerable areas.

In response—and with a firm conviction not to look away—we have delivered over 544,320 meals to the border and are preparing to deploy our ship, True North, to deliver life-saving food and aid to areas cut off by gang violence and impassable roads.

With escalating violence, Haiti continues to remain cut off from basic necessities and critical aid, and we have an opportunity and a responsibility as an organization to do whatever we can to serve the most vulnerable.

True North is a vital resource, a tool God has given us to serve those in need. Rather than sitting in a safe harbor, True North will be deployed into the heart of the crisis, bringing not only food and aid but also a message of hope.

The hunger crisis extends beyond Haiti.

In the Dominican Republic, our team is diligently working with families and individuals in desperate need of food. Current reports indicate that 1,173,051 people face a food crisis, with an additional 33,387 people in a food emergency, meaning they do not know where their next meal will come from. Our team on the ground has personally witnessed completely deplorable conditions that many families are living in, and it’s heartbreaking, to say the least. It’s inhumane, unsanitary, and deeply disturbing. We cannot look away and pretend like this is not happening.

Mission of Hope’s response to these needs is One Mission.

This is our strategic plan to reach the most vulnerable people as swiftly as possible, providing relief to families, individuals, and communities who struggle to access the most basic necessities.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

First, we ask for your prayers. Pray for the women and children who are on the brink of starvation. Pray for the hands delivering food and aid. Pray for the safety of our staff as they risk their lives to reach the most vulnerable.

Secondly, we ask that you prayerfully consider joining us on this One Mission. Our goal is to raise $1.8 million by the end of the year to impact over 500,000 people. On average, it costs $3.60 to meet one person’s essential needs this season. How many will you help impact?

IMPACT | COST

  • 10 people > $36
  • 100 people > $360
  • 1000 people > $3600
  • 10,000 people > $36,000
This is only possible with your support and partners like you who believe in this mission and the ability to bring hope and healing to those who need it most across Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

Neika's Story of Hope Neika, a student in one of the schools in our nutrition program, recently shared her story. "When my mom was pregnant with me, my dad left. My mom was always the one who took care of me. And then, in 2021, my mom died. I can still remember the day so clearly. I felt so hopeless when I lost my mom. I didn't know what would happen to me. My mom's cousin is a teacher, and she and her husband took me in to care for me. They put me in school. I thank God for them every day. Today, I am in the 6th grade! And I love school. Math is my favorite subject—it makes me feel smart when I can solve a problem. I also love getting to be with friends at school and eating lunch together. The food helps us focus, which is important—especially during exam time. One day, I dream of becomin
