Our Approach

• Preparedness

  Our team provides preparedness and resilience training for leaders and volunteers. We work to equip each individual with the wisdom and tools they need to partner with Convoy of Hope during a disaster and help their communities become more prepared before they experience one.

• Monitoring

  Our team constantly monitors developing weather and natural disaster events, as well as the ever changing climate of conflict and economic situations. By staying up-to-date and utilizing on-the-ground connections with partners, we gain a better understanding of the realities in the affected areas and can respond quickly.

• Response

  Response efforts vary depending on the nature of a disaster. We work with national, state, and local partners to equip our teams and volunteers with the information they need to provide immediate assistance through the distribution of relief supplies, such as food, clean water, hygiene kits and other needed items.

• Recovery

  Our ultimate goal is to assist families and communities in returning to self-sustainability after a disaster. To do that, our teams utilize various initiatives, including organizing volunteers in debris removal and cleanup, distribution of building materials, income generation projects, agricultural training, and assisting in the rebuilding process. We continue our work for months — sometimes even years — to bring immediate and long-term relief to those who are suffering.
