Welcome to Restoring Hope International

Welcome to our website. We are happy that you have taken a moment out of what may be a busy schedule for you in oder to get acquainted with who we are and what we are all about.

Our organization was recently founded to be able to insure the long-term success of ongoing projects that its president, Rick Daviscourt, founded in the country of Peru, South America, several years back. These include the Torre Fuerte Family Home for Girls located in the city of Arequipa, two schools currently under construction in Pachacutec and Horacio Zevallos, soup kitchens for the very poor, and several churches on an interdenominational basis.

For us at Restoring Hope International we believe that, in many ways, our lives boil down to responsibility. This responsibility must obviously be lived out towards our own immediate families and our counties of origin. However, we believe that it does not stop there. It simply cannot. With the great increase in technologies in every facet of our lives to include that of electronics and means of transportation, our world has grown smaller. We can no longer turn a blind eye to the needs of our neighbors outside of our borders and expect that someone else to supply what they lack. The sad reality is that most people simply will not help. We believe that with the great privilege of living in affluent countries also comes the great responsibility of helping those who cannot help themselves - those who have little or no voice in their societies.

We also wish to give a sincere Thank You to the different individuals and organizations that have helped to make this all possible. We appreciate all of you!: Extended Hands Ministries, Lightshine Ministries, and Freedom Road Ministry plus a number of unnamed individuals who have cared enough to step in the gap for the poor, abandoned, and abused.

So, in stating the above, we desire to show you what we are working hard to accomplish on behalf of the country of Peru. Additionally, you of course have an opportunity to participate with us in what are very quality and well-run projects in that area of the world. Together, we can continue to make a difference in some very special lives!

Sincerely,
Rick Daviscourt
President
