Walker loves HOPE
In March 2023, Walker and Craig shared yet another life-changing experience—they visited HOPE International in Rwanda together with their families. Now, they’re on a mission to shine a light on the incredible Rwandan men and women breaking the cycle of poverty for their families. And they want you to join them.
HOPE International provides discipleship opportunities, training, a safe place to save, and loans to people living in poverty in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe.
Meet the woman who stopped Walker in his tracks
A single teenage mom, Aline faced stigma and rejection as she brought her daughter into the world. She knew she had God-given skills to provide for her daughter, but no way to invest in her own potential. But when Aline looked around, she also saw that she wasn’t alone. So she launched a savings group for single moms like her.
Now it’s your turn to invest in dreams
4 in 10 people in sub-Saharan Africa live in poverty—and in the aftermath of the pandemic, that’s only expected to rise. Join HOPE International as we equip savings groups in Rwanda with the tools they need to defy the odds and create a new future for their families.
As little as $25 allows HOPE to serve one person with discipleship, training, a safe place to save, and loans for a year.

FAQs

Savings groups are a holistic tool that combines savings and lending with discipleship and a supportive community. These groups have proven extremely valuable to individuals who lack safe places to save, often due to their remote location. Groups make their own policies, elect leaders, receive ongoing training, and meet on a regular basis; group members agree on an amount to save per month or per week. After a few months, members can apply for loans from the group’s pooled savings, a valuable service for many members who would otherwise be unable to access small loans. HOPE partners with the local church to implement savings groups, seeking to equip the Church to carry out its calling to serve its community holistically.
Through discipleship, training, a safe place to save, and loans, individuals in poverty recognize and use the gifts God has placed in their hands—their time, talents, and dreams. They also build sums of money that serve as safety nets for emergencies or take out loans to invest in businesses. In the process, men and women are empowered to tackle poverty, run thriving businesses, grow in their relationships with God, and become providers in their families and communities.
