A New Hope and Future - God provided through HOPE worldwide
By Josephine Muinde
Each day became more difficult for my son and me. After my son’s father died in 2003, I then lost my job and became unemployed for two years.

He answered my prayers in July 2006. It was then I joined HOPE worldwide – Kenya as an administrative assistant.
