Transformers in New Westminster

Established in 1975, Hope International Development Agency's mission is to enable people in the developed world to connect with people in the poorest communities on earth through compassionate giving and other opportunities to help. Our organization is supported by a broad spectrum of caring people and we are not affiliated with any denomination and remain true to our roots in compassionate Christianity.Donations to our work come in many forms, shipping costs, medicine, equipment, providing free expertise, such as volunteering time, and donations of funds. The founders of Hope International Development Agency are Christian people. However, disease prevention, sustainable agriculture practices, vocational training, education, like clean water, self-sustaining benefits for people by teaching them income generating skills and further developing family and community infrastructures, most of our projects rely solely on the compassionate support of donors.Our work creates long-term, revolving loan funds and community planning methods. In some cases, donors can see their contribution doubled or tripled because some of our projects are matched by the federal and provincial governments. Cash donations are receipted and are tax deductible in Canada and the United States of America. We know it's important to you and it's important to us that we send the vast majority of funds overseas so that people get the help they need in order to transform their lives and free themselves from poverty. We carefully steward every donation. Donations are shared amongst our work in Africa, Asia and the Americas.
