Community development project

We believe it's important for our work to extend into education and empowerment for the local community to address the underlying issues which contribute to poverty and child homelessness.

Donations are tax deductible and are through the Global Development Group.

Housing for the poor

Community development projectWe have identified one couple with a daughter in a local village who are in severe financial hardship and in immediate need of a housing solution. The wife has medical complications which limit her abilities but her husband is physically capable and works as a labourer. We are partnering with this family to provide them with suitable accommodation before the rainy season starts in June. We are providing the finance to purchase the building materials and the husband will contribute the labour.

Micro-business loans

We are currently looking at tailoring micro-finance programs that will help local families get started in small business/income generation.
