Hope lives in you

Hope does not disappoint. Hope lives in you.  

Hope is in the hands of the local charity worker in Hungary, delivering emergency food to hungry refugees.   

Hope is in the eyes of Jessica in rural Zimbabwe, knowing her little ones won’t go hungry thanks to fresh water and drought-resistant seeds.  

Hope is in the heart of Natalia in a shelter in Ukraine, as her children sleep peacefully for the first time after nights of relentless bombing. 

Hope is in the homes of all who welcome the fleeing. 

Hope lives in you.
