Kick Starting Hope

Re-Imagining Aid for Sustainable Change

We work with rural villages in Burkina Faso, Africa to combat poverty by helping them implement sustainable and repeatable strategic plans for economic stability, health improvement and advancement through education.

How It Works

The strategic plans that we introduce are designed to create ownership and long term independence without our continued involvement.

Each plan requires the involvement and/or investment of the Burkinabè. The economic plans are designed to become completely self-sustaining in 4 years and create enough additional profit to repeat the process with other groups and villages.

Your Support      PLEASE DONATE

You can help make changes that last a lifetime for the people of Burkina Faso.

I’m thrilled to support Bridges to Burkina. I believe that building a self sustaining school has the potential to positively impact the community for generations to come.

Bridges demonstrates how to assist deserving people by giving them a way to improve their future through education.

Help Us Kick Start Hope

We are completely volunteer based so all of your giving goes to funding the strategic plans we have implemented in Burkina Faso.

Additionally, as they progress, our plans enable us to move on to other groups and villages as well as empower the original group(s) to help implement those plans with their neighbors, resulting in exponential and independent expansion rather static dependence.

This means that your giving will have a lasting impact for generations to come.
