Hope for the Hopeless with Craig Smith

1/26/2023

 
Picture
Craig is the founder of Village2Village, a faith-based non-profit that builds a culture of hope in under-served regions around the world. V2V believes that true transformation can only come from a personal relationship with Christ, and they seek to transform communities and families with the living hope of Jesus.

The organization partners with local programs to create “Hope Villages” in Uganda, NW Arkansas, and Thailand, to help families to break cycles of addiction, poverty, and abuse.


*NEW BOOK: AWAKE IN THE DAWN

AS OF JANUARY 2023: Since the release of Awake in the Dawn in September 2022, the book has currently raised over $290,000 for Village2Village.   

These funds are already being used. In Uganda, construction has begun on staff housing, an irrigation system is being constructed for their food crops to feed the students, and chickens have been purchased for food, for teaching animal husbandry, and hopefully as an income stream.  Construction is about to begin on the 2nd floor of the building in El Salvador, which will provide additional classrooms for the children’s and student’s ministry. Funds in Thailand and the US will be used in new projects.
