Hope on the Ground

Hope on the Ground (HOTG) is the short-term teams ministry of Education Equals Hope, a non-profit which exists to help provide education to those living in desperate and difficult situations.

Serve with us!

We host short-term mission teams from schools, churches, and corporations in the United States and Canada who work alongside our partner ministry sites.

You’ll meet and serve with children and families living in desperate and difficult situations.

The Hope on the Ground team will create a unique service experience for you and your team, handling all logistics and guiding you through the mission experience. You will make a long-term impact in our communities and return home with lifelong memories and transformation.
