Happy National Nonprofit Day

On August 17th, National Nonprofit Day recognizes the positive impacts nonprofits have on their surrounding communities and the broader world. Through nonprofits, awareness, research, and aid reach the people who need it most. In 2016, the nonprofit sector contributed an estimated $1.047 trillion to the U.S. economy—or 5.6 percent of the country’s gross domestic product.

HOPE International is a global, Christ-centered economic development organization, proclaiming and living the Gospel by investing in the dreams of families in the world’s underserved communities throughout Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe.

Peter Greer serves as CEO and President of HOPE International.  In 2013, he wrote The Spiritual Danger of Doing Good—selected as one of the top 40 books on poverty by World Magazine, which provides sound journalism, grounded in facts and Biblical truth.
