Gift of Hope
Hope is the most encompassing gift, which exists in every aspect of Common Hope’s work. Hope is the foundation of our mission, touching education, healthcare, family support, and housing. By giving a transformational gift, you’re providing resources that ensure each program can continue helping families overcome challenges that they face now so that the next generation does not experience the same hardship.
The Gift of Hope allows us to reach more people, expand our impact, and adapt to emerging needs. Your donation represents a commitment to creating possibilities for those who need it most.

Suggested Gift - $2,000 RESPONSIBILITY
Gift of Responsibility
Without the efforts of Common Hope’s Family Development program, our efforts would not be as efficient or effective. Our team of Guatemalan social workers are the face and voice of our mission, being our representatives in over 28 communities ensuring that our resources are being effectively distributed. Family Development offers multifaceted support—covering education, healthcare, and housing—giving families tools to achieve stability and pursue their dreams. Our social workers build strong relationships, walking with families as they set personal goals and face the challenges of the insufficiencies they face living in Guatemala. By giving the Gift of Responsibility, you empower these dedicated staff members to provide compassionate and consistent support, ensuring that each family has the resources and encouragement needed to thrive.
Gift of Empathy
Imagine trying to learn in a classroom without access to glasses, trying to focus on a lesson with a toothache, or navigating the chronic illness of a family member while being a young student.
Common Hope helps eliminate the barriers that prevent students from accessing essential healthcare, including medical, dental, and emotional support services. Through your gift, you make it possible for Guatemalan students to attend school healthy, empowered, and ready to learn, ensuring that no child’s education is compromised by health challenges. The Gift of Empathy enables us to create an environment where each child’s well-being is prioritized, and where families feel supported in times of need.
Empathy
This gift represents compassion in action, helping young people thrive and breaking down the obstacles that stand in the way of a bright future.
Suggested Gift - $1,000
Teamwork
When you give the Gift of Teamwork, you become part of a team dedicated to building strong communities where each family has a place to grow, thrive, and succeed.
Suggested Gift - $500
Gift of Teamwork
A student needs a safe and dignified space to learn, grow and develop. Our Housing Program brings together Common Hope builders, Vision Team volunteers, and families to create safe, sustainable homes that uplift students and their families. This collaborative effort exemplifies the power of teamwork in building futures. A stable home means families can focus on education, health, and economic well-being without the stress of inadequate housing.
Gift of Curiosity
Common Hope challenges our students to be curious about the possibilities of their future through education. In Guatemala, a high school degree can provide opportunities that previous generations would not have access to. Our Education Program fosters a love of learning in students by providing them with the resources they need to stay engaged and inspired. Through access to school supplies, tutoring, technology, and mentorship, your support helps us build a culture of curiosity and exploration. With the Gift of Curiosity, you give students the tools they need to dream big and pursue their ambitions.
This gift encourages a lifelong journey of learning, supporting young minds as they question, explore, and develop the skills to become the future leaders of their communities.
Suggested Gift - $100

This ongoing support provides a foundation that sustains our mission year-round, creating stability and allowing us to implement innovative initiatives.
