Project HOPE

Training saves lives.

When Tibetor’s newborn wasn’t breathing, midwife Esther called on her colleague Abigail for help.

Abigail had received Project HOPE training in newborn resuscitation, giving her the skills to respond when the baby needed them most.

As Esther shared, "In the event she wasn’t there, I don’t know how I could’ve saved the baby’s life in that moment.”

Project HOPE’s training equips health workers with critical skills to respond when every second counts.

For many children displaced from their homes, adjusting to change comes with fear, stress, and uncertainty.

In Poland’s Małopolska region, Project HOPE’s mobile mental health teams are bringing mental health support and social activities directly to these refugee communities, helping Ukrainian children navigate life in their new environment.

During a summer camp, Ukrainian children participated in swimming, badminton, games, and other recreational activities designed to support their well-being through movement and play. As Project HOPE’s mental health and psychosocial support specialist Marta Stoian explains, "for children, who may not always have the language to explain what they are feeling, movement and play can provide another pathway for expression, regulation, and connection.”

Mental health doesn’t only happen through conversation. Make space for your mental health today and #DoOneThing that feels like play.
