Compassion Is More Than A Feeling It's Taking Action.
What Color Is Hope began as simple housing project to help two disabled boys bound to wheel chairs with a limited life span… they lived in a pallet home with their mother and sister.
This family was in dire straights as are many Haitian refugees who live in the Dominican Republic.. Due to the extreme unemployment in Haiti as many as 600,000 to 1 million Haitians now live in the Dominican Republic. Many of them living is small pallet homes, with dirt floors in very unsanitary conditions… yes they have a roof over their heads but barely.
Les and Kathy Sloan were filled with compassion and found themselves wanting to make a difference in at least one family. What began as two people with big hearts evolved into a whole community in Northern Canada called, "Mackenzie". Together they raised enough funds to put this family in the best living conditions possible enabling the twin boys to be able to wheel around freely in their wheel chairs.
A team was assembled from multiple communities in Canada and the USA. They headed off to the Dominican to build a home which was completed and now we find ourselves expanding with many new opportunities… Our HOPE is to rally together like minded individuals who are looking to do humanitarian work and share their lives, and their talents serving the less fortunate.
We provide ongoing opportunities where we can provide random acts of kindness expanding orphanages, and feeding the hungry.
