OUR RESPONSE TO COVID-19

Like most of the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has greatly challenged our community. We have implemented two outreach programs as part of our response. The first helps support our senior citizens. Basic essentials were distributed to 120 senior citizens in the community who lacked essentials like sugar, soap, cooking oil, and the like. The second round of senior citizens were reached with a bag of maize flour and a bucket of dried fish. Our second initiative supports women and girls in the community. After reports that over 12,000 girls were impregnated, we embarked on a project to keep the young girls and women trained in art and craft with the intention of having them train others in the future. This became known as our “Rug Project” which we will continue well into the future.
