Circle of Hope International has done phenomenal work in Malawi, Africa. In partnering with the local community, COH has established opportunities for a better future for the children living in that area. COH also serves the broader community with access to a health clinic, a school, a church, and an orphanage for kids who live directly on the campus. I have had the privilege of visiting and volunteering at the Grace Center (COH's campus) multiple times. The work they are doing to help the community thrive and secure a more sustainable future is incredible.

Circle of Hopes comes alongside the most impoverished people and transforms their communities through investment in Education, Healthcare, and Economic development. They exemplify the idea that investment in development drives sustainable change. The families I’ve seen involved are passionate in the mission and have built life long relationships with the individuals they serve. The the love and trust the teams have built with these communities have had lasting impact and will continue to change the lives for years to come.

I’ve been working with Circle of Hope International as a volunteer for 6-7 years both stateside and over in Malawi. I’ve loved all my experiences — getting to be in Malawi and seeing what COH is doing on the ground there and for that community is incredible. They passionately follow their mission and are so committed to alleviating poverty by empowering locals to stir the economy! Highly recommend this nonprofit!

Over the last 15 years, my wife and I have had numerous opportunities to serve alongside Circle of Hope.
The leadership employs wisdom and grace to see that all funds raised is carefully employed to deeply impacts the people of rural Malawi in the most efficient and effective manner. Short term mission trips (which were on hold during COVID) have been transformative to me personally and to all participants.
The Impact CoH has made in Malawi is wonderfully holistic; in the areas of education, medical services, and orphan care. I smile wide whenever I ponder CoH.

I’ve been volunteering with Circle of Hope for more than a decade now. The growth and development that I have seen in that time is incredible!! I have seen that they are dedicated to their mission and vision. I am excited to see where that dedication takes Circle of Hope and the local community in the next 10 years!

My family has been involved with Circle of Hope for over 10 years and I have been able to visit two times! This nonprofit serves in Malawi, Africa and has been able to help hundreds of Malawians through education, a food program, building and operating medical facilities, and their orphanage. Not only do all of these opportunities help the Malawians, but they also create jobs for them too! Visiting the COH grounds and meeting all of the people has been a life-changing experience.

I have served with Circle of Hope International in Malawi, Africa, 5 different times. I was able to see for myself the changes that have taken place because of the diligent efforts of Circle of Hope. The quality of life has improved dramatically in this Malawiian community because of the programs implemented to serve families through education, growing medical facilities & the orphanage. They also provide needed employment and it's all based on Christian principals, which is the key to their success. I can confidently say that they use discernment and are careful in the spending of funds and sponsorship allocations in order that they may continue to help this part of the world thrive!

I have volunteered on several trips with Circle of Hope and also sponsor several children through their sponsorship program. Circle of Hope is an excellent non profit dedicated to improving the lives of the people in their local community. They desire to point people to Jesus through the various programs they offer. I highly recommend this organization if you're looking for a place to serve or a place to support financially!

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I would love to say thank you for the wonderful, amazing, and excellent world you have introduced me into. Honestly it was not in my mind even to think about it. Starting from my primary school up to secondary school, you have been there molding my bright future. I passed all levels up to now I'm at University of Livingstonia in Rumphi District away from my home district. Circle of Hope has been my parents since 2007 when I was in first grade. Circle of hope has built up my all levels of academic ground.

Without the empathy and kind heart of Circle of Hope staff, I think a lot of children would have lost hope. May Almighty Father continue blessing you with great and amazing wisdom as you are assisting a lot of hopeless children to become hopeful and good citizens who are going to help others.

To conclude, you are working on your son to become somebody very useful in future and it is my great wish to work with Circle of Hope if a job will be available. My future is bright! Through this job I will be able to help my siblings and my all relatives and those children who were together at Grace Center who are struggling for choosing wrong options, for instance ignoring the opportunity to go to school maybe for having wrong mindset.

On behalf of all Circle of Hope beneficiaries, I would like to congratulate you for considering us by sending each one of us to different universities. We cannot take this opportunity for granted. Others are struggling to find the chance of education.

Finally, our precious Lord, keep on blessings the donors of Circle of Hope so that all the vision of circle of hope will be accomplished up to the end.

The picture is of me and my friend being sent off to university by our Circle of Hope staff in September 2022.

I've known, worked with and traveled with Circle of Hope International for about 15 years. I love their dedication to the local community. They listen and respond to the needs of the people. Their focus is always on development, not on relief. They are faithful in their use of resources and communicate openly with their donors. A great place to serve and to give!

COH is a wonderful organization with a heart for those they serve. I have been to Malawi with Circle of Hope three times and will continue to go; again and again. You can see their dedication to Malawi and as you watch their community grow and succeed. I had wonderful experiences in Africa with them and it’s a pleasure to follow and join in on the ministry from home, as a sponsor and supporter, too.

Circle of Hope International is an amazing nonprofit organization. They do such great work for and alongside the people of Malawi, Africa. They are helping to provide many services for these underprivileged and under resourced people, including; education, medical care, maternity care, orphan care, child sponsorship, feeding programs, economic development, agricultural training, and so much more. But the biggest thing they do is love and encourage those in the community, helping them overcome obstacles and break down barriers. I have had the privilege of traveling to Malawi to serve with Circle of Hope International three times. Each time I learned a great deal, The biggest lesson I have learned so far is this; it is not okay to simply accept poverty because it has always been there, especially when there is something I can do. I may not be able to help everyone in the world, but I can make a difference to a few, and that can change their whole world.

Circle of Hope has changed my life. After three trips with them to Malawi, Africa, opportunities to sponsor children, and even a period working for the organization, I can’t say enough great things. The heart for empowering the local community and giving dignity and respect to those in one of the most impoverished parts of the world is unlike any organization I’ve seen.
