Traditions & Hope is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO)
with headquarters near Chicago, Illinois, that delivers medical,
agricultural and educational supplies, infrastructure and training
to individuals in developing communities who lack
these essentials for sustainable development.
Many developing countries face daunting challenges if the scourges of poverty, disease, and illiteracy are to be conquered. Progress against poverty is achievable, as the experiences of many countries have shown, but they cannot go it alone. Growth and poverty reduction will come only through an international partnership that turns promises into progress and your pledges into action.


Traditions & Hope is focused on creating and maintaining global partnerships and collaborations for developing desperately needed programs of action. These vital programs include the acquisition of supplies; building infrastructure; providing training and using sustainable development strategies.
A key goal of Traditions & Hope is to help communities in need move past short-term assistance, into becoming self-sufficient. Through long-term, self-help development programs funded by corporate and individual donors, communities around the world can increase their ability to be self-sufficient by learning and applying new, marketable skills.
