40th Anniversary Projects

Be a part of the celebrations by helping us fundraise $100,000 for two very special projects!

40th Anniversary Fundraiser

This year, our goal is to raise $100,000 to fund our special 40th Anniversary projects. Every contribution will go directly towards making the community center and special circumstance homes a reality. Together with your support, we can continue building and expanding hope.

Consider making a reoccurring donation! By committing to a monthly contribution, you help us to plan and execute our mission with confidence. Thank you for your support and being a part of Esperanza’s mission!

Lomas del Valle Community Center

In honor of Esperanza’s Anniversary, we are coming together raising funds for the construction of two very special projects. The first is for the creation of a new community center in Lomas del Valle. Lomas De Valle is a community built completely of Esperanza families and home recipients. Building community and not just homes has always been integral to the mission of Esperanza.

 

A community center would allow the community to gather not only for their FAV community meetings, but also allow the possibility for various educational, recreational, support, and vocational services to the community. Families have shared ideas of looking forward to hosting gym, Zumba, and kickboxing classes as well providing services like hair salons and medical practice. We are excited to have you be a part of this amazing project that will be built in 2026!

Special Circumstance Homes

Secondly, funds raised for the 40th Anniversary will also go towards the construction of 3 to 4 safe and dignified homes for special circumstance families. These amazing families have special circumstances with immediate needs such as illness, disability, and extremely poor living conditions that would otherwise make them unable to participate in Esperanza's homebuilding program. Together we will be building their homes this 40th year, 2025. When you volunteer with us this year, you will get to be a part of the building process and meet the families. We are eager to share their stories over the next few months, so keep an eye out for more information.

Building Hope Together Since 1985

Dear Esperanza Friends,

We are thrilled to celebrate Esperanza’s 40th anniversary with you all! For four decades, Esperanza has been dedicated to building hope and dignity. From school groups, churches, organizations, friends, and individuals, we thank you truly for being a part of this journey with us. We could not have reached where we are today without the incredible support of our community, friends, volunteers, and donors like you. We are grateful for all the contributions, efforts, and support you all have provided Esperanza throughout these past 40 years. Together as Esperanza International alongside Fundación Esperanza de México, we have enjoyed celebrating this milestone together with you all and can't wait to continue building hope.

 

In community,

Team Esperanza
