Non-Profit Organisation Awards 2025, Acquisition International | 13 Global Humanitarian Impact Champions of the Year 2025 & Non-Profit Dedication & Integrity Excellence Award 2025 s we shine a spotlight on those who give without asking, build without seeking fame, and serve without pause, we’re proud to introduce Revive Hope Africa. It is a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit organisation based in Canada, where it is deeply dedicated to supporting refugees by engaging with co-sponsors (often the family or friends of refugees) and facilitating sponsorship under the country’s Private Sponsorship of Refugees (PSR) Program. Acclaimed and accredited community sponsors, the team here guide co-sponsors across every stage of the process, delivering vital settlement and integration support to refugees from the moment they arrive and for a long while afterwards. “These efforts aim to foster self-sufficiency, promote understanding of Canadian society, and help refugees rebuild their lives in a safe and welcoming environment.” This reflects Canada’s wider humanitarian commitment, a country-wide initiative that sees refugees provided with both a fresh start and a brighter future. In Ethiopia, which is currently the only African nation the organisation is able to operate in due to its limited resources, Revive Hope spearheads a charitable initiative that sees it work towards alleviating extreme child poverty in one of the world’s poorest countries. Alongside local, community-based volunteer groups, Revive Hope works in rural areas and provides children with financial support for such vital resources as nutritious meals and school supplies. This expertly designed programme has been implemented to not only serve the immediate needs of children in poverty, but also to provide them with a solid foundation to nurture positive, long-term change in their lives. Key to this is breaking the cycle of poverty and helping these individuals to build better futures for themselves and their communities alike. “With the unwavering support of our dedicated volunteer team, the generosity of our donors, and the passion and talent of our Youth Wing, we are collectively shaping a brighter future for these young lives. ” Revive Hope’s commitment to these areas is reflected in its mission statement, a dual pledge to fight against extreme child poverty and support the reunification and settlement of refugees in Canada. Both of these efforts align with such principles as compassion, social justice, and human dignity, values that are incredibly close to the hearts of the organisation’s founders, directors, The Youth Wing, and the rest of the dedicated team here. Working tirelessly towards this noble cause, Revive Hope is hindered in its mission only by the difficulty of securing funding. The need for its support is off the scale, as millions of poverty-stricken children and young people in Ethiopia lack access to the basic necessities required to live a happy and healthy life. Due to financial constraints, the charity is forced to work exclusively through volunteers, but it one day aims to achieve the adequate funding necessary to build a compensated and sustainable workforce. Should it reach this target, Revive Hope will be able to enhance its impact through initiatives including hiring dedicated project coordinators for countries across Africa, employing fundraising and grant-writing experts to secure financial support for a multitude of projects, and hiring a staffing team to focus exclusively on refugees in Canada. Until it hits this goal and implements these projects, Revive Hope will not rest, and it is this level of passion and dedication that has resulted in the organisation reaching a number of impressive milestones in the eight years since it first opened its doors. For example, the team now operate in seven different regions across Ethiopia, adjusting the level of aid they provide based on local need. It has also grown from supporting just 12 children in 2017 to hundreds as of last year, and this is only the beginning. Similarly, in Canada, Revive Hope has sponsored more than 170 refugees since 2021, affording them all its comprehensive settlement services whilst also addressing gaps in the PSR Program. By helping refuges overcome the hurdles relating to the likes of housing, education, and employment, the team ensure the smoothest possible integration. Ultimately, Revive Hope Africa’s impact is clear, and for its work in transforming lives through the power of education and refugee support – all whilst remaining an independent, volunteer-led organisation – this nonprofit is more than fitting of these awards and a place in this programme.
