  • Mission

    Mission: Alleviating poverty by creating economic self-sufficiency worldwide. We strive to empower communities by providing essential resources, fostering collaboration, and promoting sustainable solutions that enhance the lives of those affected by poverty.

    Vision: To empower individuals in poverty by helping them gain the skills and knowledge to enable micro-entrepreneurship, leading to sustainable livelihoods and creating financial stability.

    Our Core Values: Our vision emphasizes long-term change, implementing strategies that address the root causes of poverty, thereby creating pathways to self-sufficiency and improved quality of life for individuals and families.

    About Us

    Hands For Prosperity (H4P) began as a small group of entrepreneurs, social workers, and industry leaders asking a single question: Can we make a difference against extreme poverty?

    We are a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to providing a bridge to micro-entrepreneurship. Our focus is on individuals who have the drive but lack the capital, offering them the tools, training, and resources needed to reach a Sustainable Economic Standard of Living.

    Our first project is now active in Kenya where we are working with local partners to provide literacy and driver training to underprivileged women to enable them to have their own electric motorcycle delivery (locally called Boda Boda driver) businesses. The journey has begun and will only get bigger!
