AWARENESS SECTION ::

One of the strategic aims of this web site and our organisation generally is to promote awareness both locally, nationally and internationally of the causes we support and the problems the people we strive to help, face on a daily basis. These range from lack of proper sanitation, lack of transport links, lack of sustenance, both in terms of food and medicine and also to the acute problem of orphan children to which we strive to offer shelter, food, proper medical treatment and most importantly education which is provided by the government only up to the age of 11. We have initiated local awareness programmes which help to teach people to support themselves in respect of the problems mentioned above and also to inform them of ways to tackle larger, more general problems in the area such as poverty and more specifically the lack of blood donors. Local awareness is concentrated on the specific solutions to the many problems prevalent in our community.

In terms of global awareness it is important to our organisation that the international community are knowledgeable of the obstacles preventing faster paced development. As is the way of the world these obstacles equate to a lack of funds. However we feel that although the donation of money is important to our day to day operation, it is of secondary significance. Our goal is to establish a common understanding of why we face these problems, the lack of a secure infrastructure, and political instability which filter down to a basic problem of lack of education are significant in this respect. When these issues are more internationally understood the alleviation of the persistent struggles will ease. We realise that this will be a lengthy progress, measured in years instead of weeks or months, but we have hope that through organisations such as ourselves this lengthy process will bear fruit in the form of an improved living standard.
