CONVOY OF HOPE
Invite reviews
I have seen & heard of Convoy of Hope over the past decade, but as a Joplin resident, seeing their response to our disaster was eye opening. I've helped with Convoy of Hope distribute food to the needy in Fontana, CA. But seeing their disaster response, was truly moving. They were one of the first charities on the scene within hours of the devastation. They were well organized & were able to mobilize quickly & efficiently to help not only feed people, but clothe people, help in the recovery process & stayed on with the rebuilding process. Its been 10 months since the tornado & I still see Convoy of Hope big rigs rolling through town as well as Convoy of Hope affiliated personnel still helping to pick up debris. As a donor, I'm happy that they give timely communication with updates on projects & events. Thought Convoy of Hope was a good organization prior to the tornado & seeing their operation up close & personal gave me an even greater appreciation for all they do. Excellent organization.

I think of you everyday. You are so courageous to get 'right in there', anywhere in the world where people are starting to lose 'hope', the only thing that might sustain them 'till the calvary arrives' (if it ever does!) Bless you for your powerful faith. Your every action speaks of the love of a very powerful Lord. Thank you!

I've seen Convoy of Hope grow from a samll start up to the organizaiton that exists today. They provide disaster relief both domestically and internationally, as well as outreaches to often poverty-stricken areas.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
In 2005, when hurricane Rita devasted SW Louisiana, many agencies were tapped out and slow to respond, having responded to hurricane Katrina a month earlier, but Convoy of Hope was one of the first to hit the ground running and set up relief in some areas.

I trust their processes, and their use of money and othe resources, I would like to see them more widely known and mentioned in media as an alternative to the ususal donation pitches that occur after most disasters.
