During this time, Ministry of Hope provides additional support to counteract the heightened food insecurity among children.

Over 150 qualified secondary school students remain on waiting lists annually.
Over 30 qualified college students remain on waiting lists annually.
A mobile clinic makes regular visits to bring healthcare to underserved communities, providing doctors, clinicians, and basic medicines.
