When we live in gratitude, we cant help
but give with generosity.
Giving Tuesday, celebrated annually the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, is an opportunity for people around the world to give back to their communities. After a holiday weekend which focuses on all that we have to grateful for, Giving Tuesday is an opportunity for us to give from our abundance to those who are less fortunate.
​
This year, we are focusing our efforts on about 250 migrant children living in Thailand. They are not just statistics- they are students that we visit twice a year, they are kids that we know by name, they are children that we love. These students have been displaced by the war in their homeland of Myanmar and separated from their parents. They are cared for 24/7 by just 17 teachers who recently gave up their salaries so the kids could eat.
Together, we would like to fill their plates with hope all year long, so that not a single one ever has to wonder or worry about where their next meal is coming from.
This Giving Tuesday, our goal is to raise enough money that we can provide two nutritious meals a day for these 250 children all year long.
$50 covers the cost of one meal for all 250 kids
$350 pays for a week of dinners for all 250 kids (1750 meals)
$3,000 sponsors an entire month of food for the kids (15,000 meals)
​​
If just 60 people gave $1.60 a day ($50/month), we could provide a year's worth of meals-- 182, 500 plates of hope.

Would you consider becoming a Plates of Hope Partner and helping us feed hope this holiday season and all year long?
