Help Celebrate HFK’s 15-Year Anniversary!

“This scholarship has been a true blessing in making my dream a reality. A few years ago, I lost my mother, and my father is currently facing significant challenges with his job. These hardships have made it difficult to pursue my goals, but this scholarship has provided the support I needed at just the right time. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity it has given me, not only to further my education but also to honor the sacrifices my parents have made.“
-Jackie (Costa Rica, March 2025)

“As a college student, balancing school and work, I wouldn’t have been able to afford this trip on my own. Your generosity lifted that financial burden, and gave me the freedom to say yes to something I truly felt called to.”
-Astrid (Colombia, June 2025)

“I was so close to not attending this trip because I am not able to afford it. After chatting with staff and receiving additional support, I was able to experience how strong the love of God is! Being able to have this experience is something that I will always be grateful for.“
-Luz (Costa Rica, March 2025)

“This journey was more than just a trip; it was an awakening, a calling to appreciate life deeply, and a reminder of the power of community. Thank you for being a vital part of this mission. Your support has not only transformed my experience but also ripple effects that will echo through the lives of many.“
-Taylor (Dominican Republic, April 2025)

“I remember how many of my classmates would take this trip and come back feeling very inspired to do more and feeling transformed. I also remember how I wanted to also take on this journey back then, but was unable to afford the trip. And now, thanks to the scholarship, my dream to participate in this trip finally came true!” -Ana (Peru, June 2023)

“I thought I was going to have to decline the invitation to serve on our first ever Colombia trip since I was preparing to start graduate school and it was very tough on me financially. But, thanks to HFK’s generous donors, I qualified for an HFK scholarship and was able to serve!” -Victoria (Colombia, July 2024)

“I was able to apply for and be awarded a scholarship which allowed me to have this incredible experience! I found the trip to be very motivating and transformative as it has reignited my love for mission work. I am excited to continue helping others!”

-Kaylea (Costa Rica, March 2024)

“I went on this trip thinking I was going to contribute towards someone else’s life, and little did I know that it was going to impact my life positively when I came back. I found my identity and purpose once again. Being a mom of three girls, I would sometimes put their needs over mine. This trip made me realize what my family was lacking, not the materialistic things I thought they needed but the time spent at home just doing ordinary activities that do not involve an expense.” -Sandra (Peru, June 2023)

“I have been dreaming about getting back into serving in another country with HFK again. I finally made my dream come true this summer in Costa Rica. I found the experience to be an amazing and rewarding trip.” -Taylor (Costa Rica, July 2023)
