Organization Overview:
 

Hope for a Better Tomorrow (H4BT) is a non-profit organization working to eliminate poverty, reduce violence, diminish illiteracy, and challenge social inequalities. We believe that everyone can contribute to making our world a better place. Contact us for your opportunity to volunteer and make a difference in someone’s life.

 

Additionally, although H4BT does not support any particular political party or candidate, we also consider and discuss legislative issues relative to our four programmatic focal areas.

 

1) Eliminate Poverty. We hope to achieve measurable progress in changing the lives of those who live beneath the poverty line by supporting local, national, and international initiatives aimed at reducing the amount of people living in poverty. We will also enact programs and events that seek to support those in a quest to change their socioeconomic standing.

 

2) Reduce Violence. We do so by organizing mentoring programs, promoting role models, and providing positive outlets for youth to engage in to stimulate their minds, occupy their time, and develop their leadership abilities.

 

3) Diminish Illiteracy. Studies show that many children, teens, and even adults have a hard time or are unable to read and/or articulate information. It is our hope that we may be able to organize oracle contest, debates, and other initiatives that support one's ability to become more literate and able to properly communicate in a diverse global context.

 

4) Challenge Social Inequalities. Our efforts in this area are focused on identifying social inequalities that exist and working with relevant parties to bring about social change.
