From October 5th through 7th, Bright Hope will be hosting its bi-annual Poverty Summit event. Join us for three important evenings from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm at the Bright Hope Center in Hoffman Estates as we explore why poverty is rising and what we can do about it. On each evening of the Summit, you will hear from our project developers in a different region of the world — Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Each evening will include worship, a special dance presentation, speakers, testimonials, questions and answers, and how you can partner to bring Hope to the extreme poor. You’ll hear stories about the incredible life changes that have taken place and the challenges we still face as we seek to bring physical, economic, and spiritual hope to those living in difficult and desperate circumstances.

This is a live special event with no cost to attendees. You may attend only one or all of the offered nights.
