Where this comes from
Communities of Hope believes that God transforms landscapes and lives. The poetry of Isaiah 41 verses 17 to 20 is powerful and energising for us: a picture of God taking barren land and bringing irrigation and vegetation, many water sources and a variety of trees.
God brings abundance into the wilderness and turns the land fertile. It is also a symbol. God renovates the land and the lives of those who live on it. That shapes how we see places and people, and why we expect transformation in the hardest places.
The team

Financials
Communities of Hope does not currently publish annual accounts or an audited financial statement on this site. Transparency is one of the organisation's four stated values, so this page is where those documents belong. Until they are here, institutional donors should request them directly at info@coh.bi.
