The Kanitz Award recognizes Hope as one of Brazil's top 50 charities of the decade, chosen from over 1800 organizations.
"Healing the bruises and broken hearts of exploited street children takes the long-term residential care and therapy of committed staff. It also takes the healing of The Great Physician. That’s why I recommend the faith-based approach of Hope Unlimited... delivering hope and transforming kids’ lives since 1991."
Dr. C. Everett Koop, MD
Former U.S. Surgeon General
"I served as a volunteer English instructor with Hope Unlimited and can testify that Hope is a ministry where transformation is truly lived out, the grace of God is real, and the life-giving force of the Holy Spirit is unmistakable. Only go to Brazil if you want to encounter the living God and witness Lazarus coming out of the tomb again and again and again."

"Our partnership with Hope Unlimited includes the multinational and local private sectors in a world class effort to place young people in jobs with a future."
William S. Reese
CEO, International Youth Foundation
"I was ordained 44 years ago. In those years I have preached the redemptive power of God's love innumerable times. Never - in all those years - have I seen it as powerfully and graphically displayed as among the children at Hope Unlimited."
Rev. Graham Bardsley
Arlington VA
"In 2003, we visited Hope Unlimited with our two teenage sons. We were overwhelmed with the work that God is doing through this ministry with children that otherwise were destined to a life on the streets, or even death. One of the biggest lessons learned was the realization of how blessed we are and that God has given us a responsibility to give back."
