PROJECTS
EDUCATION IMPROVEMENT
​​ Each year, 10school-aged, poverty-stricken children are selected to receive academic scholarships. The money is used for tuition, uniforms, textbooks and other school supplies. The goal is to support children to complete secondary education, and then assist those students in seeking scholarships to universities worldwide.
FOOD BANK
​
​
Our food bank program is designed to ease the food problems faced by the elderly and children in communities we provide free medical screening and disease treatments. Most of children that come for the treatments are taken care off by single parents who do not have stable jobs. We implemented the food bank program after coming to the realization that most of the elderly and children in the poor communities do not have food making the medications given to treat their disease almost ineffective. We aim to provide them with non-perishable food items including canned milk, canned vegetables, canned fish and meat, rice, maize, oats, sugar and oil.
