HOPE-JP • Jan 17, 2023

Dear Friends of HOPE, 


On behalf of all of us at HOPE Japan, let me wish you and your loved ones a Happy New Year in 2023! May this year be filled with joy, health, prosperity, and well-being for all.


Thank you for continuing to join us on our journey of Helping the Neglected Poor Become Self-reliant.  Your contributions this year will provide those in ultra-poverty with access to clean water, education, and sustainable livelihood resources. Here is a brief overview of our projects and programs in 2023.

HOPE for 2023

Cambodia: Water and Education Projects in Pursat Province

In 2022, HOPE Japan constructed 10 wells and 32 latrines, and provided training sanitation, hygiene, maintenance, for 74 households in Krawpeu Peekrom Village, Pursat Province in their integrated community development project. In 2023, HOPE is continuing to fundraise to build an elementary school in Krawsaing Pnov, and for an additional classroom for the Sameit Village School. Here also 10 wells will be built, and 5 cows provided for family farms in 2023.

Ethiopia: Progress in the Southern Nations and Nationalities Peoples' Region

Construction of the Balta, Bagara, Uba Yambala, and Kale Malo water systems will be completed in 2023. These clean water sources will prevent most waterborne diseases in Oyda district. We also are constructing sanitary latrines at schools and will integrate sanitation and hygiene training to stop open defecation disease vectors. The Women’s Empowerment through Community Participatory Water Supply System, which will benefit some 19,806 people through self-help groups and income generating activities that began in 2021 will continue throughout 2023. These water, education, and sustainable development projects will help these communities emerge from ultra-poverty.

Philippines: Seeds of HOPE

HOPE Japan is providing more opportunities for higher education to Indigenous Youth in the Philippines who otherwise would be deprived due to social and financial reasons. We are deeply thankful to the generous donors that provide scholarship funds for these outstanding students.
