Charting Impact
What is your organization aiming to accomplish?
Our goal is to have one million orphan leaders sharing the Gospel by 2030. It is an ambitious goal that we cannot accomplish on our own. It will only be possible with God at the helm. He is a big God and can do this without Hopegivers, but He has graciously allowed us to participate in bringing the nation of India into the Kingdom of God!
What are your strategies for making this happen?
1. Continue to rescue children and bring them into the Hope Homes (47 of them), educate them and introduce them to Jesus Christ. 2. Send those called to missionary work out to do for others what was done for them once the graduate high school or Bible College. a. Some will open a Hope Home, others will simply rescue children and raise them along with their families. b. Some will establish churches and schools in villages where there previously were none. 3. Teach this process to others around the world in order to help us get as many children trained as “arrows in God's quiver" for the sake of the Gospel. 4. Continue to raise funds both here and abroad at the $35/monthly so we can rescue more and more children each year.
What are your organization's capabilities for doing this?
1. Hopegivers has for profit schools in India whereby we provide an excellent education for a fee, and in turn support pastor with the income gained from the schools. 2. Hopegivers International is the fundraising arm of the ministry here in the United States. We raise money by speaking with corporations, groups and churches in order to advance the cause of Hopegivers. 3. We have an excellent Board of Directors that donate individually and work collectively to promote the mission of the organization.
How will your organization know if you are making progress?
1. The increase of orphans, abandoned and at-risk children rescued year to year in our Hope Homes. 2. The number of children that graduate from High School and Bible College each year. 3. Financially: The increase in our monthly donor base each year. The more funds we raise, the more orphans we can rescue.
What have and haven't you accomplished so far?
Since 1960 when Dr. M. A. Thomas began the ministry with a small group of friends, we have established over 60,000 congregations. We currently have 47 Hope Homes that daily provide for the needs of the children. We have raised many children of Lepers, Widows and Dowry Castaways and given them a chance in life that otherwise they would not have received. Last year we graduated over 800 from our Theological Seminary and sent them out at pioneer missionaries.
