The name may be new to you, but the organization and its commitment to improving lives in the developing world is longstanding, and it's beautiful.

The Primate's World Relief and Development Fund was established in 1958 to connect Anglicans in Canada to people in need, and its name changed to Alongside Hope in 2024. We're all invited to contribute to the organization's efforts this fall, through its Solar Suitcase project. 

Help Light the Way for Women and Babies in Mozambique and Madagascar

Imagine giving birth in the dark, with only a flashlight or cell phone for light. That’s the reality for many women in rural clinics across Mozambique and Madagascar. But it doesn’t have to be. Alongside Hope’s Solar Suitcase project equips these clinics with solar-powered kits, bringing bright light, vital medical tools, and peace of mind.

Alongside Hope: Double the Light. Double the Hope.

A Solar Suitcase costs $6,500 to produce, deliver and install, and every gift made by October 31 is being matched, up to $150,000. That means a $100 gift becomes $200 of life-changing support to off-grid clinics in Mozambique and Madagascar. Your generosity powers lights, a fetal doppler, and more—giving midwives what they need to safely care for women giving birth and newborns. Let’s turn on the power for safe births, together. Visit alongsidehope.org/solar-suitcase or call 1-866-308-7973 to learn more or donate.

The Wild Ride: Move with Purpose

Whether you walk, cycle, knit, sing, your favourite activity can help women and babies across Mozambique and Madagascar. Alongside Hope’s Wild Ride is a do-it-your-way fundraiser that supports Solar Suitcases for clinics without electricity. Every step, stitch, or song helps bring safe light to birthing clinics in Mozambique and Madagascar. Every gift made by October 31 is being matched, up to $150,000. Learn more or join in at alongsidehope.org/wild-ride or call 18663087973.
