A Glimmer of Hope

I love what Glimmer of Hope is doing because like other non-profits I am partial to, they teach people to fish and create long term solutions for people rather than offer a quick fix.

A Glimmer of Hope empowers rural Ethiopian communities to end the cycle of extreme poverty through the transformative impact of clean water, education, health care and microfinance opportunities. Since Glimmer’s founding in 2000, we have invested $85 million, built more than 9,000 projects and distributed 44,000 microfinance loans—impacting millions of lives in rural Ethiopia. With an endowment that covers all operating costs, every donation goes directly to projects in the field. To learn more, visit www.glimmer.org.
