Mission: Every day hope (edh), with a driving passion, exists to bring relief to communities and to raise the standard of living in developing nations. Edh works with community leaders and government officials to create sustainability within those communities. We develop programs for domestic water, potable water, training, and micro-enterprise projects.
Programs: Every day hope hosted one team that focused on micro enterprise training. We held a basic boot camp that taught students how to start and run a sucessful small business in the community of el limon. Edh's livestock for life program continues to be fruitful; edh started it's second program in the community of el factor, with 10 families and by the end of 2017 had 12 families involved in the program. Livestock for life is an edh program that provides a pair of pigs or goats to a needy family. The family must qualify, then go through animal training and then give the first born animal back to edh, who then gives the newborn to a new family that will join the program. The first program, in the community of savana de hostos continues to thrive with 34 families as part of the program. The expenses listed do not include 1,000 for material and 275 volunteer hours. Edh also hosted a team of us police officers and detectives to do hands on training for the dominican national police force. The program was a tremendous sucess and will continue in the future. The expenses listed do not include 150 volunteer hours.
