What We Do
-
Disaster Services
Convoy of Hope's Disaster Services team is consistently among the first to respond to disasters. Highly regarded for our scalable response and distribution model, we utilise our twelve international warehouses, a specialised disaster response fleet, and a highly-trained team of staff and volunteers to respond quickly and effectively.
-
Agriculture
Food security transforms communities by lifting people out of dependence on others for their daily sustenance. Through our Agriculture program, we equip vulnerable farmers and their families with the skills, tools, and seeds to produce life-sustaining crops.
-
Women's Empowerment
When women are given the opportunity to generate income, it impacts the economic standing of their families and communities. We partner with women to help develop sustainable resources which they can leverage to make more strategic, independent life choices.
-
Children's Feeding
Convoy of Hope wants to see lives changed, free from poverty and hunger through our Children’s Feeding initiative. Food security is a critical component of a thriving community, as it increases the likelihood that children can stay in school, among other positive outcomes.
