The Hand of Hope International is a non-profit organization whose sole purpose is to inspire children and enable them to help change the world by assisting with food, shelter, education and disaster relief.
In the United States and other developed countries, we take for granted all the necessities of life, while millions around the globe are enduring hunger, poverty and preventable disease.
The Hand of Hope International believes that every child has great potential and that each child should have the opportunity for success in life. We believe that by helping children overcome adversity, wherever they live, they can change our world.
- Keli Wilson, Founder

"Our soul purpose is to inspire children and enable them to change the world"
The Hand of Hope International believes that...
"Where you live should not determine whether you live".
Our sole purpose is to inspire children and enable them to change the world by assisting those in need with food, shelter, education and disaster relief.
The Hand of Hope donates to and collaborates with other Non-Profit and Non-Governmental Organizations to fund our mission. Unlike other groups, The Hand of Hope forwards 100% of all monies to its cause, with no money being used for administrative purposes.
The Hand of Hope has been organized as a conduit to bring key people together to participate in overcoming the challenges children are faced with in the United States and internationally.
