What Trinity Hope Inc does

Trinity HOPE Inc is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1999 and headquartered in Lebanon, Tennessee, that operates a feeding program for children attending Christian schools throughout Haiti. The organization provides approximately 1,345,000 meals per month to over 76,000 children across 301 Christian schools, with a standardized meal of rice or corn, beans, and a protein sauce developed by a Vanderbilt University nutritionist. Each meal costs approximately $0.38, and the organization states that 95% or more of contributions go directly to feeding programs. Field operations are executed by 37 Feeding Program Directors and one supervisor, with food purchased locally from Haitian markets, a model that creates over 500 Haitian jobs and supports local economies.

The organization is funded primarily through individual and church donations, recurring monthly school sponsorships (ranging from $25/month shared sponsorship to $2,240/month for full school sponsorship), mission trip fees ($1,400-$1,800 per participant), corporate giving programs (Amazon Smile, Kroger Community Rewards, Thrivent Choice, Combined Federal Campaign), and ancillary programs including the Kids Feeding Kids VBS mission curriculum, the Share the HOPE DIY fundraising platform, and devotional content. GTM motions are direct-to-donor and community-led, relying on church networks, mission trips, fundraising events, and faith-based content marketing. The U.S. operating team is small (Executive Director, Operations Manager, Development Officer, IT Manager, and School Correspondence Coordinator), and the organization has achieved a Charity Navigator 100/100 rating and GuideStar Platinum transparency seal.

Trinity HOPE's mission explicitly integrates physical feeding with Gospel sharing: every school in its network is a Christian school that actively teaches the Gospel, and 95% of children fed reportedly come to believe in Jesus Christ. Leadership transitioned from founder John Hall (who died in November 2016 after serving more than 26 million meals) to Keith Logan, who had volunteered since 2006 and became full-time Executive Director in 2016. The organization is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and is not structured for external investment, with no disclosed revenue figures, funding rounds, or institutional ownership.
