Taking Action

One way to make an impact in the community of Korah is through becoming a sponsor. Through your support, many different Hope for Korah programs are tangibly bringing hope and transformation to the lives of individuals - physically, socially, emotionally, economically, and spiritually. Sponsorships can be shared by friends, small groups, or churches.

It is a great privilege to work alongside our wonderful Ethiopian staff and beneficiaries. It takes a great deal of strength, support, and courage for families and children to overcome the many challenges that poverty places in their way. We welcome prayers for the health and strength of our beneficiaries as they gain confidence in their intrinsic abilities, learn new skills, stretch their minds through education and training, and take steps toward self-sufficiency. We also welcome prayers for our leadership and staff in Ethiopia and Canada – to have wisdom and discernment in how to work collaboratively with the community of Korah to bring holistic transformation to those who need it.

A Prayer for Korah
This prayer is the foundation of HFK. It was placed on the heart of HFK’s Founder, Eve Pohl after returning home from her first visit to Korah in 2010. Through the prayers of many God is moving in Korah.

Hope for Korah sends teams to Ethiopia every year. On each of these trips, we carry numbers of check-in bags full of donations to distribute to those in need. Many clothing items are placed in the HFK ‘Souk’ (Amharic for store), and are available for our children and families to purchase with points that they earn through attendance, hard work, serving others, or improving artisan skills.

Various items are always needed on the ground such as clothing, vitamins, medical supplies, and new or gently used clothing for our families. If you are interested in collecting donations to be sent to Korah, or will be on a team travelling to Ethiopia and would like to pack items to bring for Hope for Korah, please reference our current list of needed items. Please contact Karissa, our HFK Teams’ Coordinator, for more information on delivery instructions.
