Our History
The Ray of Hope Foundation was founded in 2003 by Dr. Teresa F. Gipson, a Family Physician with over 15 years of experience working with vulnerable, underserved populations in the U.S. and abroad.
The Ray of Hope Foundation is dedicated to creating grassroots community based projects that improve education, infrastructure and health services in Kenya. Our projects are guided by the aspirations and self-identified needs of the communities in our project areas.
We provide secondary school sponsorship, train traditional birth attendants and health workers, assist women to start microfinance programs and improve infrastructure (wells, classrooms, clinics, school supplies and medical equipment/supplies).
We accomplish our mission with the understanding that we are all interconnected and share universal human values which, when recognized and cultivated, have the power to transform our global community.
Ray of Hope is a registered 501c(3) charitable organization. All donations are tax deductible.
