COVID-19: Bright Hope Responds
Disaster strikes suddenly. Whether a pandemic or a natural disaster, life as we knew it can be utterly destroyed in a moment. And for most people living in developing nations, when this happens, there is no safety net, no savings account, no recourse.
We are doing everything we can to help right now, hoping and praying prevention measures will stop a full-blown mass outbreak.
You can help too by giving to Bright Hope’s COVID-19 Response Projects. Your support will enable us to do more, faster, at a time when lives are hanging in the balance. All COVID-19 donations are deposited into our Disaster Relief Fund and will be used for the most urgent needs of our church partners.

We are in uncharted territory. The coronavirus has caught the world off guard and has forced us to reorient our lives for the sake of others. This will be especially difficult, and in many cases impossible, for the most vulnerable members of society—the extreme poor.
Send Help Now
Prevention is the best defense in the face of COVID-19, but it requires that we act quickly, both with training and materials, but also with life-saving assistance of food and other survival needs.
Your generous gift of $50, $100, $250 or any other amount to Bright Hope’s disaster relief fund helps us reach impoverished families impacted by COVID-19 and other natural disasters.
