"Short term solutions, long term impact."

Money solves problems temporarily, but used wisely and in conjuction with Jesus, money can have an eternal impact--money is not salvation, but with microfinance it can open doors for Jesus to walk through.

Dignity

Room at the Table
I chose this saying because it means a lot to me. it is a saying my great grandmother used to always say.  it has a practical meaning as she'd always say it when people would visit. but now I feel it has a deeper, greater, and broader meaning. It means we always will have a chance to eat, be at the table, succeed, and have dignity. we just all need to share more, give more, and sacrifice more. HOPE is helping to share the table as it connects those willing to eat a little less to the impoverished waiting for their chance at the table.
