We believe that building two way relationships will break the cycle of poverty. I'm well Crookes, Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Hope Chest. For nearly 15 years, I've had the privilege of fostering relationships with churches and businesses to create global impact. And again, joined by the host of greatness. Anna, welcome.
Anna Kerr: Thanks to well, it's so good to be back. Our show today is going to be awesome. You guys, our listeners are going to love it. We talked to three storytellers from the Hope Beyond Borders event last week, and it was a really good conversation, we got to dive a little deeper than the event covered. So it was a fun conversation. And we'll actually be posting the link to the recording of the event and next steps in the show notes if you guys want to hear more from them.

Anna: Today, we are joined with three guests, Isaac, Richard and Alice from Uganda. And two of these guests are actually graduates of Coppermine auto CarePoint in Uganda. And we are looking forward to hearing their stories and how they were impacted from the chair point and how they're taking that impact and multiplying it in our community. And we're just really excited. So hey, Richard, how are you doing? How do you feel being on the podcast today?
Richard: I'm really upbeat because little did I know that I was going to share my success story with all the world today! Because I used to be seen in our community as someone who would not succeed...but through their support and from HopeChest and Kaberamaido CarePoint; it has made me to be who I am today.
Wil: Tell us a little bit about your story. You know, you had some challenges growing up, didn't you?
Richard: I had a lot and a lot of stories I had a lot and a lot of challenge in my life. I lost my father in 2006 when I was very very before I started is calling.

In this episode, we hear the inspiring story of a couple who decided to sponsor a child in need, not just for a short-term period, but until the child became an adult and achieved success. We explore how the relationship between the couple and the child grew over the years and how they provided not just financial support, but also emotional support and guidance. We learn about the accountability that the couple held the child to, and how it encouraged the child to take ownership of their own success. Ultimately, we see how the power of love and relationship transformed the life of this child, and how it can do the same for others. We discuss the importance of long-term commitment and the impact it can have, not just on the individual being sponsored, but on the sponsor as well. This episode highlights the transformative power of relationship, accountability, and love, and encourages us to consider how we can make a difference in the lives of those around us.
