"Our Rites of Passage Self Discovery Program is dedicated to empowering and improving the lives of Black Youth through a 22 week (20 Instructional Weeks/2 Week Journey to Ghana). During the intensive 22 Week Program, students take a self discovery journey in which they learn about self, where they come from and what they are capable of achieving, leadership development, financial literacy, drug/alcohol awareness and community service. Our goal is to create a safe space for Black Youth to grow, flourish and transition into adulthood."

It takes a village to raise a child and Gifts of Hope would like to be that village.

Soo Dhaweynta Aasaasaha

Ku soo dhowow bogga hibada Rajada. Sharaf ayey ii tahay inaan halkaan ku soo qaato. Haddii aad raadineysid inaad ku caawiso ama aad u baahatid kor u qaadis naftaada, waxaan rajeynayaa in Hadiyadaha Rajada ay kugu xiri doonaan bulshada weyn isla markaana ay dhammaanteen nagu xoojiso howsha. Aynu isu nimaadno awoodeena iyo damaceena si wadajir ah si aan u saameyno isbedelka dhabta ah, maxaa yeelay wadajir waxaan sameyn karnaa wax ka badan inta aan sameyn karno kaligaa . Waxaan sugeynaa inaan kaa maqalno!

Hadafkeenu waa inaan wax ka badalno bulshada. Waxaan bixinaa barnaamijka kafaalaqaadka tayada ugu sareeya si looga faa'iideysto korna loogu qaado shaqsiyaadka hoylaawayaasha ah iyo kuwa dakhligoodu hooseeyo ee Gobolka Washington.

Becca & Eric, kafaala qaadayaasha GOH

Waxaan iskaa wax u qabso ugu bixinaynaa hadiyadaha rajada maxaa yeelay waxaan ognahay inaan dhamaanteen u baahanahay xoogaa caawinaad ama taageero ah waqtiyo kala duwan oo nolosheena ah.

Monique & Qoyska
