~ 2010-2011 ~
          For the spring of 2011, Financing Hope worked to donate three long-term gifts: a sewing machine, goat, and rickshaw. Each of these gifts helped a family begin a business to start building a better life for themselves. We partnered with Gospel for Asia to make this project happen and we plan on beginning a new venture this fall that will consist of a partnership between a foreign local church and ourselves that will be focused on providing spiritual as well as physical resources to fund promising entrepreneurial ideas from enterprising individuals overseas.

Goat
       When a Dalit family receives your present of a goat or a pair of goats it will be a special day! Goats are hardy and can live in almost any climate. And a pair of goats produces at least two kids each year. Their manure is also good fertilizer. Your gift of goats will be a good way to bring a little joy to a poor family's world.

Sewing Machine

       For the poor of Asia, sewing is not just a hobby; it is an opportunity to earn a livelihood for their family. In places where electricity is available, a motorized sewing machine allows the work to be completed much faster. You can give a gift of a motorized sewing machine for $115 that not only clothes the family, but will put food on their table as well.

- Rickshaw -

Rickshaw
        Rickshaws are like the taxis of Asia. For many low-caste people, being a rickshaw driver is the one opportunity they have to provide for their families. However, many have to rent a rickshaw every morning because they can’t afford their own. Up to half of their daily income can go toward renting this vital piece of equipment. With their very own rickshaw, these hardworking people can keep all that they earn to help pay for their family’s basic necessities.
