From the president

We have taken that advice to heart by enrolling more than 115,000 at-risk children in our nutrition program, ensuring that they remain healthy.

Vanessa is a single mother who once made a living as a prostitute. When we met Vanessa she confessed there was a time she didn’t love her kids and wasn’t sure life was worth living. But after enrolling her children in our nutrition program, Vanessa had a change of heart.

“Things I once thought were impossible I am now doing,” she said.

Today she is making a living selling bread and fish and caring for her children. And, through the Convoy of Hope nutrition program, her children are now receiving an education.

That’s the kind of measurable change and impact Convoy of Hope and our partners

celebrate every day – through children’s feeding, disaster response, and community outreach.

For example, when a devastating tornado cut a large swath through Joplin, Mo., thousands of homes and businesses were destroyed and 161 lives were lost. Because of the generosity of individual donors and corporations, Convoy of Hope was able to distribute 3 million pounds of emergency food and supplies to 12,000 families. Many of those same partners joined Convoy of Hope as it builds more than a dozen energy-efficient and storm-resistant homes for residents who lost their homes.

When an earthquake and tsunami struck Japan, Convoy of Hope and our partners responded immediately. Together we provided more than $1.6 million in food, supplies and services. And, we provided

radiation detection equipment and training for nationals.

In 2011, we also held 76 community outreaches worldwide, providing meals, medical and dental

screenings, job fairs, haircuts and clothing to more than 100,000 families. One of the primary goals of the outreaches is to connect families to educational and development opportunities in their respective communities, thus helping them to change their own lives.

Because of your partnership, the world is being changed one life at a time. Thank you for all you have done to bring real help and lasting hope to those in need.

President, Convoy of Hope

The only meal many children enrolled in Convoy of Hope’s children’s feeding initiatives receive is from Convoy of Hope.

Years ago, someone offered some good advice: “No single person can change the world, but everyone has the power to change the world of a hungry child.”

NeW WareHouse IN HaItI offers opportuNItIes to expaNd

Convoy of Hope’s new 36,000 square foot warehouse just outside Port-au-Prince, Haiti, was completed in late 2011.

“The warehouse is a symbol of hope and provision for the people of Haiti,” says Hal Donaldson, president of Convoy of Hope. “It also allows us to continue expanding our children’s feeding initiatives in Haiti and respond quickly to disasters in the Caribbean.”

Five years ago Convoy of Hope obtained a small warehouse and started feeding 6,000 children in Haiti. Today, more than 55,000 children are fed each school day throughout the country.

The vision for the warehouse was put on the fast track shortly after the massive 7.0 earthquake struck in 2010.

In 2011, Convoy of Hope held 76 community outreach events throughout the world, including 55 in the United States. In total, more than 126,000 guests of honor were served by 24,314 volunteers in Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas and Wisconsin.

13,000 guests IN NortHerN CalIforNIa

In late 2011, more than 13,000 people attended a Convoy of Hope community outreach in Sacramento, Calif.

“Today we served some of the poorest of the poor in the region,” says Ron Showers, director of global outreach for Convoy of Hope. “But we also served many working-poor families who simply needed a hand up during these tough economic times.”

Throughout the day more than 2,300 volunteers manned areas that offered health and dental screenings, family portraits, groceries, clothing, shoes and employment opportunities — all of which were free of charge.

“The services offered are so very needed,” says Monica, a homeless mother of three who is expecting. “We stay here or there, so this event came right on time for us.”

Convoy of Hope’s fleet of semi tractor-trailer trucks drove 347,858 miles in 2011.

buIldIng new homes In joplInYellow daffodils bloom along the foundation where Helen Owen’s house stood before being blown apart by a tornado May 22, 2011, in Joplin, Mo. The small signs of life are harbingers of good things to come—one of the most important being a new home on the site in the near future. 

I just want to go home,” says Helen, as she stands on the foundation of the home she lived in since 1957. “Home is here. Memories are all I have left, and I have plenty of them here.”

Helen’s new home will be one of a dozen homes being built by Convoy of Hope and partners Global Green Building, LLC, Project Safe Home, T.F. Concrete Forming Systems, Joyce Meyer Ministries — Hand of Hope and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Jackie Allen, 37, a single mother who lost her home during the tornado last May is also receiving one of the new homes.

“This is a game changer for us,” she says. “With no insurance, I had no idea where my son and I were going to live. Now we have security for our future.”

Honduras: Food For cigarettesA short drive from the bustling streets of San Pedro Sula, Honduras, the tiny village of El Mango is wedged under the forest’s canopy.

It’s here, that livestock roam freely, wages are made farming, and the “general store” is a small wooden table filled with essentials and groceries. It’s also here that Convoy of Hope feeds 100 children every school day — a remarkable number considering there are only a few hundred people in the surrounding community.

One of the children fed here is Pedro. He’s small for his age, rarely makes eye contact with others and has the countenance of a boy who has known neglect.

“He spends most of his time here at school now,” says Irma de Medina, the director of the program. “Before he came into the program a

few months ago he was malnourished, drank alcohol and smoked cigarettes.”

Pedro is only 7 years old. To get him into Convoy of Hope’s feeding

program — and ultimately school — Medina relied on bartering. “Even though I don’t smoke, I traded him snacks for cigarettes at the gates of our school each day,” she says.

Since Pedro enrolled, he and older brother, Miguel, have gained weight and are learning to read and do math. They’re also learning how it feels to be cared for and loved. “I like the school and the food,” offers Miguel. “It gives me energy.”

“Cargill and our employees have partnered with Convoy of Hope on several projects over the years. From volunteer opportunities to disaster relief, we recognize that Convoy of Hope is an important resource for many in our community, and we are proud to support its valuable programs and services.”
