Mike first went to Huruma, Kenya in September of 2014 and was struck by the level of impoverishment the community suffers and helped begin the process of bringing HOPE International, Inc. to its current status as a 501(c)(3). that This helped spread the word of Christ in Africa by increasing aid and educational opportunities to children and break the generational cycle of sickness and poverty that has plagued this region for many years.  It is his hope that others will follow in his decision to support this ministry and help children in Africa rise above their circumstances through education and faith in Jesus Christ.
