Thank you for giving!
We humbly want to thank you for
giving to Homes of Hope. The mothers and the children in
the capital city of Suva are greatly changed by your giving.
We
would like to introduce a Fiji charity to you: Homes of
Hope. This local organization has been registered as a Fijian
charity for eight years. Our main objectives are to strengthen
families to know that the family is a place of rest, peace,
and purpose. To meet these objectives, Homes of Hope (a
non-government organization) operates a Home for single mothers
and provides prevention programs as well.
Presently, Homes
of Hope operates a safe home for young single mothers
in Tamavua, Suva. At this Home a young single
mother
and her child receive food, housing, care, and programs
so they might have a fresh start on life. Through the
programs, a mother learns to establish positive life patterns,
gains
instruction on mothering, develops needed academic skills,
practices proper money management, and acquires practical
business
experience. Committing to new principles gives a young
mother the opportunity to develop new skills that will change
both her life and the lives of her children.
In
addition to the Residential Home, Homes of Hope strives
to make an impact on the community through a prevention
strategy. We network with local organizations and churches
to train leaders
who will promote and teach issues of marriage and family.
We also travel to schools and groups of youth to reach
out with
a message of sexual purity and fidelity in marriage.
An additional component of the prevention strategy
is teaching
young couples
the foundational issues of marriage.
We thank you for your
time and attention to this ministry. We thank you for your
kind and generous support. Strong
families
build
a strong community; a strong community builds a strong
nation. We hope to partner with you to build strong
and unified families
so that our nation will itself be strong and unified.
In Truth and Hope,
Directors of Homes of Hope
