The Hope4Creation Foundation ("H4C") exists to enable faith communities to move from environmental intention to sustained action. We know the environmental crisis can feel overwhelming and detached from our own places and practices of worship. We help groups work together to find ways to integrate their values and beliefs into the collective life of their faith communities.
