Hope Evangelical Lutheran Church in Burundi
With feeding initiatives in several provinces in Burundi, the network of churches associated with HELCB feed over 2500 men, women and children annually. These are the most food insecure in the villages,
often eating less than the value of one small potato a day. They often fill their stomachs with water, that is often unpure, to ease the pains of hunger. HELCB is a light of hope, care and the love of Jesus in
these communities

HOPE of Rock Hill

 

HOPE of Rock Hill is a volunteer non-profit organization. It takes approximately 10,000 volunteer hours each year to operate the crisis assistance programs. Over 90¢ of every $1 goes directly into services to help the needy in their community.  

A brief history of HOPE of Rock Hill: During the 1970s many of the area textile mills were closing.  Churches were suddenly overwhelmed with people seeking help with their day-to-day living expenses. In 1975, a concerned minister and several churches formed a ministry to help people in their time of crisis. The goal was to provide an assistance program to step in when social agencies reached the end of their resources and to “fill the gaps.” What became known as the “HOPE House” was located on Park Avenue. In May 2021,  moved into a new, much larger facility located at 504 Oakland Avenue in Rock Hill.
