Haiti Earthquake
Our thoughts and prayers go to the victims of the Haitian Earthquake.

This is part one of a project that will supply two goats to 25 guardians (quite often grandmothers and widows) of orphaned and vulnerable children in the Kabondo, Kenya. The goats will help individual households to have a sustainable source of milk and income through goat rearing. Goats are the least expensive livestock to raise locally. When the goats produce offspring, these guardian families will be able to purchase school materials and school uniforms. They will be able to afford to provide basic medical care and food for the orphans under their care in a sustainable manner. Each goat along with veterinary training for the guardians will cost $54. |

The teachers association to cater for children (TTATCC) was formed in 2006 and fully registered in 2007 as a community based organization in Buwenge town council Jinja district-UGANDA by involving a group of Christian men and women, professional teachers and pastors after a careful assessment of the needs of the children whose parents died of HIV/AIDS or just being poorest of the poor persons in the community. TTATCC is a grassroots community based organization formed as a civil society with a purpose of supporting/caring for vulnerable members within the society, particularly children and caregivers who have either been affected by or infected with HIV/AIDS and could not afford the basics of life.
The chicken raising project will be implemented by TTATCC to:
-Build capacity of orphans in life support
-Provide orphans/vulnerable children with scholastic materials at Light Academy Education study centre.
-Provide orphans with a source of highly nutritional food.
TTATCC's purpose is to develop and support sustainable income generating activities that enable civil society to strengthen community based care mechanisms for children infected with and affected by HIV/AIDS. Completed! Click on this need's title to read more. |
