Bags of Hope
Bags of Hope is a small way that we can bring a smile to the face of a child. Every face lights up when they reach into their Bag of Hope and pull out some school supplies and a piece of bubble gum or a new hat.
With each Bag we are giving out more that candy or toys—we are giving out the love and prayers of all who have joined together across the world to bring hope to a child.
People from Canada and America have grasped the vision, sending balloons and stickers through the mail or better yet, coming and being a part of this project—right here in Malawi.
These Bags were made by people in Canada and America. The children will use them as school bags. Often the parents will be seen using the children's Bags to carry their things as well.
What are Bags of Hope?
Each Bag contains a school book, pencil, balloon, toy, gospel track and some candy. Some are hand sewn by donors in Canada or the USA, some are plastic bags we purchase here.
Our Vision
Our vision is to employ local tailors to make the Bags as a way of sustaining families by creating employment. Each one is packed with love and given out in schools villages and churches across Malawi.
A Bag of Hope costs about $2.50. Why don't you get involved today?
