The HopeHouse is a gathering place where women walk through the doors into their own power.

Founded in 2008 with the support of our generous donors, DiscoverHope opened HopeHouse, a women’s development center in Cajamarca where the women make loan payments and gather to attend trainings. We have created nearly 250 development classes in business, literacy, health, culinary and artisan development. These classes are not only a place for women to acquire new skills they can translate into sales for their businesses, it is a common space for the women to come together to share and learn. It costs DiscoverHope $25 to host each class and each woman must show her commitment to attending the class by bringing half of the materials needed to participate

HopeHouse was born from the voices of our women, and we know that the power of leadership means guiding others to their true nature and facilitating opportunity for their greatness. We uphold our mission for women to create further sustainability and sufficiency in this space by learning new skills to benefit their lives. We seek real outcomes through engaging these skills at HopeHouse: gaining income for daily food for families, promoting habits that encourage health for their children, teaching the magic of the alphabet. Our vision is that this dwelling is owned and operated and loved by women for years to come.
