Health & Wellbeing
Children worrying about their next meal, safe drinking water or physical pain often fall behind in school or do not attend at all. Our health and well-being initiatives focus on empowering communities with knowledge and access to services. From maternal and child health to SRHR and HIV prevention.
Health care
Even when health related issues do not kill, they still affect everyday life. It is estimated that on average children in Africa will miss 20 days of education because of sickness and health related issues. This is around 11% of the total teaching days. If children are not at school, they cannot gain a good quality education.
Our healthcare initiatives aim to address the physical health needs of vulnerable children and women in impoverished communities. We provide access to basic medical services, including regular check-ups, vaccinations, and treatment for common illnesses. We also raise awareness about hygiene practices, disease prevention, and nutrition. By improving their overall health, we aim to enhance their quality of life, reduce the risk of preventable diseases, and promote a strong foundation for their holistic development.
Clean and Safe Water
Access to clean and safe water is crucial for the well-being of individuals in impoverished communities. We work to establish sustainable water solutions, such as wells, boreholes, and water purification systems, to ensure that children and women have access to clean drinking water. Additionally, we promote hygiene practices, such as hand washing, to prevent the spread of water-borne diseases. By addressing the water needs of these communities, we aim to improve health outcomes and create a more sustainable living environment.
