Extreme Response
Transforming communities…one entrepreneur at a time.
The Reality
Yes, the Philippines has made great strides in recent years in their efforts to reduce poverty.
Still, there are 17.6 million Filipinos who do not earn enough money to buy basic food items and meet other needs.
Lacking a reliable source of income, there is limited or no access to food, health care, and education.
As a result, families and children become vulnerable to human trafficking, hunger, sickness, and even loss of life.
The Difference
We can change things. How? By developing emerging entrepreneurs within these communities and empowering them to pursue a God-given vocation and teaching them how to launch thriving businesses.
Hope Ventures partners with the Lean Start Entrepreneur Initiative to create community transformation through business development among men and women.
How is that accomplished?
· Entrepreneurs are trained to start their own low-cost, self-sustaining business.
· Hand-picked business owners are mentored and coached into success ... not just for themselves but also for their community.
· Relationships are cultivated among entrepreneurs and mentors, resulting in a supportive community where they will continue to grow.
The goal isn’t just delivering top-notch training, but to launch a thriving entrepreneurial community that is self-sustaining and continues to create and grow new businesses.
The Investment Opportunity
