To mark the 25th anniversary of WeSeeHope, we brought together many of our incredible supporters for an evening of celebrations and sharing our vision for the future.

We welcomed Steve Murigi to the team as our new CEO!

Our founders, Phil and Wendy Wall, were both awarded an MBE in the Queen’s New Year Honours List for their services to our work with vulnerable children in Southern and Eastern Africa.

Together with our corporate partner, Qlik.org, we developed two cutting-edge data dashboards that are advancing how we monitor, evaluate and improve our programmes.

Our VIP exceeded its targets, with 749 groups formed since 2014, impacting over 17,000 members and 46,000 children.

We started piloting our Child Headed Households Programme in Malawi to address the acute social and economic challenges children living without a parent or guardian face.

WeSeeHope USA was founded.

We changed our name from HOPEHIV to WeSeeHope and our international office in Germany was founded.

We officially launched our first economic initiative, the Village Investors Programme (VIP), setting a target to form 500 savings and loans groups by the end of 2018.

One of our amazing supporters, Sarah O’Neil, ran 12 marathons in 12 days as part of her ‘12 in 12’ fundraising challenge.
