One way to make an impact in the community of Korah is through becoming a sponsor.

Sponsorships can be shared by friends, small groups, or churches.

We invite you to click on the links below to learn more about becoming a HFK sponsor:

It is a great privilege to work alongside our wonderful Ethiopian staff and beneficiaries. It takes a great deal of strength, support, and courage for families and children to overcome the many challenges that poverty places in their way. We welcome prayers for the health and strength of our beneficiaries as they gain confidence in their intrinsic abilities, learn new skills, stretch their minds through education and training, and take steps toward self-sufficiency. We also welcome prayers for our leadership and staff in Ethiopia and Canada – to have wisdom and discernment in how to work collaboratively with the community of Korah to bring holistic transformation to those who need it.

A Prayer for Korah
This prayer is the foundation of HFK. It was placed on the heart of HFK’s Founder, Eve Pohl after returning home from her first visit to Korah in 2010. Through the prayers of many God is moving in Korah.

Do you have a group of friends or an entire class that is passionate about helping to end poverty? You can create a Korah Club and work together to raise awareness and plan fundraisers for the children and families living in Korah.
