Gifts of Hope are gifts that give back
Every year, Gifts of Hope reach millions around the world with life-changing gifts that give back. Gifts of Hope cannot be wrapped like regular gifts, but they do unwrap huge possibilities for those who receive them worldwide. They help provide goods and services like goats, school supplies, clean water access, essential health equipment and supplies to communities in need.

How a goat can help empower a girl
In several rural Zambian communities, many families struggled to overcome poverty, facing harsh hurdles like limited resources and agricultural crises. Often the income that many parents could earn went straight to feeding their children, leaving little available for school, medicine and other essentials – and leaving children’s full potential behind.
14-year-old Monica’s story was similar, until the life-changing moment when one generous Canadian chose to Defy Normal holiday conventions and give a goat Gift of Hope.
A matched gift multiplies your donation!
A matched gift means that your donation is matched by one of our government, foundation or organizational partners. Some gifts are multiplied up to nine times! Matched gifts are the perfect way to make an even greater impact for children and families.
