The majority of women in Bihar have little education and possess few marketable skills.

Your support of $225 provides one woman six months of training in the Bridge of Hope Sewing School and her very own pedal-powered sewing machine.

Approximately 40% of students enter into a life-transforming relationship with Jesus.
GIVE NOWThere are over 19 million children between the ages of 0-6 living in Bihar, most of whom live in rural areas with little to no access to education.

For just $30, you can partner with us and provide a child with literacy training for one year.
