Building Hope Project is a Christ-based student sponsorship/ ministry aided to serve the children of Uganda. Its purpose is to enrich and enhance the quality of life through education and holistic ministry. We provide daily meals, tuition, scholastic needs, and spiritual counsel to children and their families. Our overall goal is to ignite personal and community development across the world. We want to bring people to the realization that they themselves can make a difference; all they need is the opportunity to do so.
We envision Building Hope Project as an international network that creates and sparks community achievement. We desire to equip children and ultimately their environments physically, mentally, spiritually, and in the workforce. Our goal is to serve as an access point to catapult generations into their purpose all while inspiring and equipping people to be disciples for Christ and carrying out a mandate for love and global development.
All around the world, especially in developing nations, you can see the apparent link between education and prosperity, as well as ignorance and poverty. Although majority of children in Uganda initially enroll for primary school, almost half must drop out before their culmination into secondary school due to lack of funds. Children in Uganda who do not receive an education are much more likely to live in poverty for the rest of their lives and their life expectancy is drastically stunted. This is the reality- where there’s no education, there’s very little chance of hope.
We believe that only through Christ, all things are possible- such as the overturning of global poverty.
We believe in the power of the family unit and its undeniable purpose in creating a stronger community, society, and world.
We believe that education is a gift that ALL people, regardless of ethnic background, religion, class, or race, deserve.
We believe that education is one of the only effective catalysts to creating sustainable societies.
We believe that change is a process and that effective change only comes through personal development.
We believe that local change opens the pathway to global change.

In the summer of 2012, 16 year old David Curtiss travelled to Uganda, Africa on a missions trip. Since this was his first trip of service out of the country, he had no idea what to expect. But in his time there and ever since, he has carried a burden for the victims of global poverty.
Unwilling to wait or stand by any longer, David Curtiss has pushed himself aside and has taken on this call that he knows was given to him by God. Regardless of age and circumstance, David understands that there's always something you can do to help someone else- whether big or small. Through the support of family, friends, and partnering organizations who understand the plight of global poverty, David has been able to voice his wanting for change in a way that's not just verbal, but tangible.
And this is his method of retaliation.
