This document summarizes a letter from the president of World Help asking readers to donate to their Gifts of Hope program. The program provides aid to impoverished communities around the world by meeting both physical and spiritual needs. Donations can be used to fund things like food, clean water, medical care, education, vocational training, and small business start-up tools. The goal is to lift people out of poverty in a sustainable way by addressing both immediate needs and long-term development. The letter encourages readers to consider donating this Christmas season to share the gift of hope with those in desperate situations.

2. Christmas gave us a gift that
changed everything . . . hope!
During this time of year, I can’t help but remember those living in the most
extreme conditions—those trapped in a world of hopelessness.
Poverty, disease, oppression . . . they steal everything away from you,
including the ability to hope. Without the fundamentals of healthy living—
food, clean water, medical care, education, opportunity—lives are robbed of
dignity . . . reduced to simply surviving.
But we were created for so much more than just surviving. We have been
given the promise of hope. And it’s a promise that was meant to be shared.
This Christmas, will you and your family consider sharing the gift of eternal
hope with those who desperately need it? Gifts of Hope was created to
strategically meet physical needs so doors can be opened to meet spiritual
needs. Simply put, providing help for today means giving the gift of hope
for tomorrow.
We’ve been given a gift that has the power to change everything. How can
we not share it?
Merry Christmas,
Vernon Brewer

3. AID
In order to bring development, we must first ensure
that basic needs are met. Providing physical aid is our
approach to establishing long-term care. How can a
community thrive if its children lack even the basics:
food, clean water, shoes, or medicine?
Only when their most essential needs are met
can families and villages begin to move toward
sustainable health. We must invest in resources
that meet immediate physical needs while
simultaneously building toward a stronger, healthier
tomorrow for individuals caught in a cycle of despair.
Together, we can build the foundation for lasting
well-being. Clean water, food, medicine, and
physical protection are where the real strength
of a community begins.
And do not forget to do good and to share with others,
for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
– Hebrews 13:16

Overwhelmed by poverty, Fernando’s
mother left when he was barely a year
old and already malnourished. While
his father worked during the day, his
12-year-old sister did the best she could
to care for Fernando and his twin
brother. But they had been sick for
months. Their tiny bodies seemed to
shrink by the day. It would take a
miracle for them to survive . . . a miracle
that came in the form of life-saving
medical supplies at one of World Help’s
rescue centers.

Fund (MEF) is a ray of hope for children whose very lives hang in the balance.
Help us act immediately on behalf of a child with a life-threatening medical crisis.

EDUCATION
Education is the pathway out of sickness, gender
inequality, underdevelopment, and the perpetual
cycle of hopelessness generated by extreme poverty.
The benefits of successful schooling are enough to
transform entire families . . . and that impact reaches
the next generation. Primary education and skills
training are directly related to lower infant and
maternal mortality, higher incomes, and better
protection against disease. We must treat it as a
priority if we want to see successful development
and sustainable growth.
Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still;
teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.
– Proverbs 9:9
10 worldhelp.net/gifts worldhelp.net/gifts 11
“There were times when I
had no good blankets to keep
myself warm. But with the
blanket you gave me, I am no
longer cold during the night and
I’m able to sleep comfortably.”

7. SchoolUniforms
Too many children are missing out on an
education that could change their lives simply
because their families can’t afford mandatory
uniforms. Tragically, this basic requirement
prevents thousands of children from
attending school. Give a uniform and unlock
a child’s potential through education.
$22 Provide one child with a school uniform
Item #4591
SchoolSupplies
Can you imagine going through school without pens
or pencils—not even something to write on? This is

communities, but we can help them foster better
education. Create a successful learning experience for
a child in need by giving essential school supplies.
$40 Provide supplies for one year for a child
Item #4592
SportsEquipment
In countries ravaged by war, disease, and
extreme poverty, sports can offer youth a little
reprieve from the hardships they experience.
Sports build community, strengthen social skills,
and more. Yet many children only have access
to improvised bats, shredded soccer balls, and
makeshift nets. Provide new sports equipment
and invest in healthy childhoods.
$100 Provide sports equipment

Street gangs and
violence are an ever-present
influence on children living in
Honduran suburbs. Not only do we help

sense of dignity.
Do not forget to show
hospitality to strangers,
for by so doing some people
have shown hospitality to
angels without knowing it.

8. VocationalSchoolScholarships
A chance for secondary education is rare for young
adults living in poverty. However, by providing training
for in-demand skills, we empower these individuals with
competence, dignity . . . and the ability to break free from
the cycle of poverty. Invest in healthy families through a
vocational school scholarship.

Hair-StylingTools
andProducts
Hair care is a reliable skillset for
many in developing communities,

being of an entire family.
$150 Provide hair-styling tools for one student
Item #4595
SewingMachines

Tailoring is at the heart of so many small
enterprises around the world, and the proper
tools can mean the difference between poor
productivity and thriving businesses.

Item #4593
WeldingEquipment
Welding is a powerful venue that meets thriving industry demands. But
the equipment is expensive, which leaves thousands of trained individuals

Tools of the Trade
Vocational schooling is an excellent alternative
for individuals unable to pursue higher
education. In-demand skills training not only
ensures reliable incomes, but means a
healthier way of life for entire families.
... and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with
understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills.
– Exodus 35:31
“Ever since I got

9. FruitTrees
We can help stop hunger, vitamin deficiencies, and

with poor diets. Not only is the produce high in essential
vitamins, but it can also be sold for additional income.
$30 Provide a fruit-bearing tree
Item #4583
Transportationfor

SUSTAINABILITY
Extreme poverty eliminates the most basic resources
needed for long-term health. But how can a family or
community build and grow if each day is lived out
with the goal of simply surviving?
Through Gifts of Hope, we invest in practices that will
yield health and hope-filled futures year after year.
Breeding livestock, growing gardens, selling milk,
harvesting wool—these are all results of sustainable
solutions. And they will continue to meet needs . . .
generation after generation.

and transform entire communities. These animals have been

of revenue. It’s an investment that meets
multiple needs while building toward a
healthier tomorrow.
$1,000 Provide one dairy cow
Item #4558
Sheep
One sheep can yield 30 pounds of wool

$120 Provide one sheep
Item #4584
Pigs
Pigs are a powerful gift for families
struggling through poverty—their benefits
are abundant, making them a strategic
resource. Not only are they a great source

SmallHomes
Countless households in impoverished
South American communities are headed
by single women, and their homes are often
defenseless against intruders and extreme
weather. In many of these rural communities,
a typical home is constructed of salvaged
materials like tin and plastic. The majority
consist of only one room with dirt floors
and no running water. But together, we can
build safe places to live for vulnerable single-
parent families struggling to survive.

The lack of professional medical care in
sub-Saharan Africa is astounding. Thousands

countless lives by building Clinics of Hope
where emergency care is readily accessible.

Community
& Spiritual
Development
Holistic health begins with a strong infrastructure—
physical, social, and spiritual. These elements
allow a community to move forward with dignity
and competence.
Yet so many villages and regions lack these
unifying fundamentals. As a result, forward
progress remains nonexistent.
Building a strong infrastructure means ensuring
a community has access to clean water, shelter,
medical facilities, schools, and churches. Together,
they build a foundation for sustainable growth
and long-term health. They also pave the way
for new standards of development, allowing a
community to thrive.
Share with the Lord’s people
who are in need. Practice hospitality.
– Romans 12:13

Waterborne diseases kill more than 3.4
million people yearly . . . claiming the
lives of 4,500 children every day. In
fact, dirty drinking water is at the root of
malnutrition, infant mortality, preventable
diseases, low school enrollment, and
ultimately, the cycle of poverty.
By building clean-water wells and
implementing water systems around
the world, we can prevent water-related
illnesses, save lives, and build healthier
children, families, and communities.

HomesofHope
Of the 16 million AIDS orphans globally,
nearly 15 million live in sub-Saharan Africa. In
the aftermath of the epidemic, families were
ripped apart, virtually destroying the familial
system and creating an entire generation
of orphans.
At the height of the crisis, World Help began
building Homes of Hope for those left
behind. These unique facilities are caring
for children and young adults directly
impacted by the devastation of AIDS. Each
child receives nutritious food, education,
medical attention, and is raised in a safe and
loving environment. These homes make up
“Villages of Hope.”

Impact
Last year’s Gifts of Hope campaign was the most successful to
date, and World Help couldn’t be more grateful for the lives
forever changed as a result.
Through vocational training, you empowered young women
previously enslaved to prostitution. You gave the gift of God’s
Word to villagers in rural Bangladesh who had never heard the
name of Jesus. You equipped AIDS orphans in Zimbabwe with
an education that allowed them to excel in their national exams.
You helped starving families regain their footing by providing
livestock and agriculture opportunities.
With every gift and every act of compassion, you instilled dignity
and a sense of hope for those who needed it desperately.
And this year, we want to do it again. There are still entire
Chinese congregations studying from one Bible. Hundreds
of low-caste Indian communities are waiting for clean water.
Mothers in the slums of Uganda still rely on their bodies to make
money for their families.

If anyone has material possessions and sees a
brother or sister in need but has no pity on them,
how can the love of God be in that person?

World Help has offered help for today and hope
for tomorrow for more than 20 years.
World Help is a faith-based, humanitarian organization that exists
to serve the physical and spiritual needs of people in impoverished
communities around the world.
We do this by partnering with compassionate individuals who
have the vision to make a lasting difference. We rely heavily on
international partners who personally know the needs of their
countries. These faithful men and women not only help us identify
needs on the ground, but also carry out the physical details of
project implementation and follow up.
Currently, World Help directs 87 percent of all resources to our
global projects, using only 10 percent for administration, and 3
percent for fundraising. Every gift is maximized in order to bring the
greatest amount of aid to those who need it most around the world.
We have received the highest ratings from the Evangelical Council
for Financial Accountability (ECFA) and the independent donor
advocate organization, MinistryWatch.com.
In order to experience true health, a
child must have access to clean water,
nutrition, education, medical attention,
and love. Yet millions of children are
without those foundational needs.
They are living every day just to
survive. World Help believes everyone
deserves a healthy childhood. With the
help of compassionate sponsors, we’re
giving the gift of health and hope to
thousands of children globally.
Sponsorship isn’t simply a monthly gift of $35,
it’s an investment in future leaders, parents,
doctors, teachers . . . world changers. It unlocks
the potential of impoverished children and sets
them free to not only dream about their futures,
but pursue them. Become a sponsor today and
equip a child with the love and resources needed
to change the world.
