THE VISION: AN OVERVIEW

"There has to be a Herculean effort made for these kids so we don't lose them. Otherwise...you will have a society where kids haven't been to school and therefore can't fulfill even basic jobs...a society where a large proportion can have anti-social instincts because their lives have been so hard. You have a generation of children who will be more vulnerable to exploitation and to disease because they won't have the same sense of self-worth." 

Stephen Lewis, UN Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa

Practical Solutions That Build A Tomorrow For Africa's Children

Current Facts About The Situation in Africa:

Root issues creating African orphans include:
  • Cholera and/ or Dysentery killing parents due to lack of clean water sources.
  • Lack of education and job opportunities contributing to rampant poverty and disease.
  • AIDS killing large portions of the population.
  • Death during childbirth doe to the large absence of proper medical facilities.
  • Malaria and/ or TB killing large portions of the population.

The Objectives:

  1. Form an outreach model for orphan and widow rescue and rehabilitation which cuts the root causes perpetuating the orphan problem in this region.
  2. Provide vital education and job skills for underprivileged and orphaned children through multi-level schools and a technical training facility.
  3. Establish a financially self-sustaining economic system that will support the outreach model.
  4. Duplicate this outreach model in other parts of Africa where the greatest needs exist.

These objectives can be reached with your help through the 5 real-world steps outlined here.
