What We Do
We strive to provide everyone with opportunities to learn and develop their individuality, enabling them to lead their lives as independently as possible. We believe that everyone deserves to be treated with equity, dignity, and respect. The Door of Hope offers quality services to support individuals at risk of marginalization and works to create opportunities and choices that foster connected lives where everyone is valued as equal citizens in our communities.
Food Security
This program is designed to insure that everyone should have reliable access to enough safe, nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and preferences and food is available to people of all classes, genders, religions, and states.
Healthcare Program
The Healthcare program is designed to meet the health needs of the poor through the provision of free or subsidized hospital bills for diagnosis, prescription drugs, out-patient consultations, in-patient admissions and treatments, including surgical procedures.
Free Education
According to international human rights law, primary education shall be compulsory and free of charge. Secondary and higher education shall be made progressively free of charge. Free primary education is fundamental in guaranteeing everyone has access to education. However, in some underprivileged countries, families often cannot afford to send their children to school, leaving millions of children of school-age deprived of education. Despite international obligations, these countries keep on imposing fees to access primary education. In addition, there are often indirect costs associated with education, such as school books, uniforms, or travel that prevent children from low-income families from accessing school. Proper education is the right of every individual whether girl or a boy.
This program will help children get primary, secondary and possibly higher education for free. Our vision is a world where the right to education for all becomes a reality, from early childhood to adulthood and throughout life, based on the principles of non-discrimination and equality.
For that reason, the program will mainly focus on providing hygienic food and water to the poor.
Capacity Building
The Capacity Building Program provides basic literacy and vocational training to help women and young boys and girls cope in the society and with family. The program trains them to become entrepreneurs, in different marketable skills, after which they will be capable of establishing small to large enterprises or find employment. It also provides entrepreneurship training to enable those who have already acquired skills training but remain unemployed.
The Skills Training and Entrepreneurship Development Program provides opportunities for the poor, mainly women, and youngsters to improve their lifestyles through training and encouragement to find solutions to their lack of work. The specific objectives of this program are following:
- Provide women and young boys and girls with tools and knowledge that will enable them become economically self-sufficient
- Inform women about their rights in regard to gender-based violence and guide them through rehabilitation when affected.
