The best entrepreneurship business meets people at their needs, and Hopeprint does exactly that. Hopeprint values collaborative neighborhoods as a way to build community. Every year hundreds of refugees and new Americans flood to the United States to seek better lives. Hopeprints goals are to give these new Americans the tools and life lessons to survive this new life but then to teach them to thrive. Acclamation is a struggle that Hopeprint tries to meet and help. The team wants to empower the new Americans to kickstart this new phase in their life.
Their goal is seen in their motto of “unifying diverse communities rich in culture and connectedness to prosper in place.” While the workers and volunteers come from a Christian perspective, they don’t try too hard to push the gospel onto these new Americans. They want to value their neighbor’s culture and respect it, however, they show Christ’s love everyday through love.
The company has seen a lot of success in just a few years by beginning to expand into other neighborhoods that have a high population of new Americans. They are also receiving more donations than ever and sponsorships from grocery stores to help feed the new Americans and get them started down a successful path.
