There is hope for everything and in everything hope. All day, everyday, orphans HOPE for a HOME. A loving family, a warm home, a little hope. With the extreme poverty in the many countries of Africa, the orphanages are jam-packed. Some orphanages have even closed down because there are no funds. Now, to us, that doesn't make any sense... close down an orphanage because this is when you are needed the most?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;   We may not and will not be able to change every orphan's life, but we will do what we can. If everyone just stood up, we all could make a difference. "You must be the change you want to see in the world." -Ghandi. That is what we are TRYING to live by. The world won't change if we don't try to do something! If we all cared, all loved, and even all adopted we would at least make life a whole lot better for one child, if not many. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;So, here is our mission- to advocate adoption (which is really close to my heart), to advocate child sponsorship, to help orphanages all around the world, and to give these beautiful children the HOPE of Jesus.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Are you in?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5915451639536330042-6454711944345750519?l=ahintofhope.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ahintofhope.blogspot.com/feeds/6454711944345750519/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5915451639536330042&amp;postID=6454711944345750519' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5915451639536330042/posts/default/6454711944345750519'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5915451639536330042/posts/default/6454711944345750519'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ahintofhope.blogspot.com/2008/11/where-it-all-began.html' title='mission{HOPE}'/><author><name>Sarah</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Vehn5iMJWEc/ThshcLO6uUI/AAAAAAAAAm0/GnUmCZUGNDE/s220/IMG_8602.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
