This past May, through the collective generosity shared from this Hope community, 26 graduates from our Power of Hope vocational program received their own tool kits.

Recipients were selected; tool kits were purchased, assembled and distributed.

Because of you, an increase in employment opportunities for these 26 graduates was made possible. Each recipient was interviewed and here are some of the words they shared about how these kits will improve their work and lives.

"Before it was difficult for me. Whenever I had a contract, I had to borrow tools and they weren't always available. This kit will lessen my burdens."

"The tool kit will take me to another level as an electrician technician, improving my skills and adding value to my career."

"This kit will enable me to sustain my family and give me the opportunity to give back to society."

"Skills without tools are not profitable, but with the tool kit I will be able to do more, which will result in great life improvement."

Thank you for all the ways you equip students at Hope International. Grateful to each and every one of you.
