Mission and programs · 2023

• IN 2023, OUR THRIVE CERTIFICATION PROGRAM WAS RENAMED THE THRIVE PROGRAM AND HOUSED UNDER A LARGER OFFERING CALLED COURSES & COACHING. UNDER THIS NEW NAME, WE REPRESENT THE IMPACT OF THE THRIVE ASSESSMENT, IMPROVEMENT ROADMAP, AND RELATED COACHING EFFORTS (COLLECTIVELY CALLED THE THRIVE PROGRAM) ON 1,769 CHILDREN IN 47 HOMES IN MEXICO, BULGARIA, KENYA, UGANDA, GHANA, NIGERIA, AND ZAMBIA. THE THRIVE PROGRAM IS A PROCESS THAT ASSESSES EACH PARTNER HOME IN 15 STANDARDS OF CARE FOR CHILDREN. IN BAJA, MEXICO, THE ASSESSMENT IS COMPLETED AS A DISCUSSION BETWEEN THE HOME'S LEADERSHIP AND A REPRESENTATIVE FROM A CHILD'S HOPE. IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD, VETTED DEPLOYMENT PARTNERS WHO ARE TRAINED AND COACHED BY A CHILD'S HOPE TEAM MEMBERS ASSESS THE HOMES IN THEIR NETWORK. THE ASSESSMENT RESULTS LEAD TO AN IMPROVEMENT ROADMAP THAT IS A TANGIBLE, PRIORITIZED PLAN FOR HOW THE HOME CAN CONTINUE TO IMPROVE THE ENVIRONMENT FOR THEIR CHILDREN TO THRIVE. THROUGH GRANTS DIRECTLY TO THE HOMES (OR GIVEN THROUGH DEPLOYMENT PARTNERS), WE ADDRESS NEEDS IDENTIFIED ON THE IMPROVEMENT ROADMAP.

• 2023 SAW THE BLOOMING OF AN IDEA TO HOST A NETWORK WE CALL THE COLLECTIVE. THIS IS A GROUP FOR PASSIONATE INDIVIDUALS WHO WANT TO LEARN AND COLLABORATE IN SOLVING THE GLOBAL ORPHAN CRISIS. WE DO THIS THROUGH MONTHLY LEARNING EVENTS AND THROUGH THE WHATSAPP COMMUNITY OF THE SAME NAME. THE MAIN THREE EVENTS WE ORGANIZE ARE ROUNDTABLES, EVENTS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC WHERE WE BRING SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS TOGETHER TO DISCUSS A SPECIFIC TOPIC WITH PARTICIPANTS; TOWN HALLS, ONLINE, MEMBERS-ONLY MEET-AND-GREETS GEARED TOWARDS LEARNING ABOUT THE GOOD WORK BEING DONE AROUND THE WORLD; AND LASTLY, FOCUS GROUPS, CURATED CONVERSATIONS ABOUT A SPECIFIC TOPIC. BY THE END OF 2023, WE HAD 79 MEMBERS IN THE COLLECTIVE AND HAD HOSTED 20 EVENTS INCLUDING 1 IN-PERSON CONFERENCE, 5 TOWN HALLS, AND 14 ROUNDTABLES. GRANTS OF $270 AND $585 WERE GIVEN TO TWO OF OUR PARTNERS FOR THEIR HELP IN ORGANIZING THESE EVENTS.

  Expenses $129,594 · Grants $855 · Revenue $12,650

• IN 2023, WE TOOK 1,486 VOLUNTEERS ON 42 SERVICE TRIPS. THE MAJORITY OF TRIPS WERE HELD AT SIX OF OUR PARTNER ORPHANAGES IN MEXICO, WITH A FEW SPECIAL TRIPS TO VISIT PARTNERS AND EXPLORE NEW CONNECTIONS IN COLOMBIA, BETHLEHEM, AND BULGARIA. THE FUNDS RAISED FOR THESE TRIPS WERE PRIMARILY USED TO PURCHASE BUILDING MATERIALS AND TOOLS FOR OUR VOLUNTEERS TO REPAIR AND REMODEL THE ORPHANAGES. THE FOCUS OF THESE TRIPS IS TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE ORPHANAGE CAREGIVERS AND CHILDREN, SO WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME EATING AND PLAYING TOGETHER. WE ALSO HOSTED TWO LONG-TERM VOLUNTEERS AT NUESTRA FAMILIA AND ONE AT RANCHO DE LOS NIOS.
