Growing Hope Globally

HARVEST OF HOPE, our local growing project is a unique opportunity to eliminate world hunger bringing together farmers, churches and agribusiness to grow a crop and send the proceeds to Growing Hope Globally. GHG’s goal is to support the efforts of the world’s poorest communities to produce or earn enough to feed their families and have a little extra to barter or sell, send their children to school, and to buy staples and basic medicines. During the month of September, you can make a donation to Harvest of Hope and help eliminate world hunger. Place your donation in the morning offering. Checks should be made out to the church with a Harvest of Hope notation.

HARVEST OF HOPE, the local Growing Hope Globally project, is one of the outreach programs of South Waterloo Church of the Brethren in cooperation with other area churches. Other participating churches include St Timothy Lutheran and Zion Lutheran of Hudson..

Harvest of Hope is continuing its eighteenth year!

HARVEST OF HOPE

The funds have been used in Guatemala, where trees are being planted to reforest the area, cisterns are being dug so clean water is available nearby, fuel-efficient stoves are being constructed so families can cook without inhaling the smoke from the fire, and skills are being taught. Nicaragua and North Korea are also benefiting from the recent donation to Foods Resource Bank.
