Our mission is to improve the social and economic well-being and health of the poor and under privileged in our society through education, skill development and job creation.

We seek to accomplish this mission in the communities in which we work through four main areas which include access and training on Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), enabling poor children to still have a good education, improving the health of the poor and helping to reduce the spread of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, empowering poor adults through micro credits and training, and helping with community development projects such as clean drinking water and electricity.

Educate a whole family with the same set of textbooks

Genesis — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 08:13:53 +0000

We set up a revolving Community Education Library that gives out school textbooks to needy children to use for that school year and then return to the library. The same books are then given out to another group of needy children for the following year and the cycle continues. Libraries are set up in schools enabling easy access to books by children in need. If this is the kind of project you would like to support, please contact us.

Provision of business training and loans is part of our micro-finance package intended to help lift especially women and their families out of poverty.

Trained Community HIV Educators in turn educate their groups

Genesis — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 05:49:30 +0000

We are helping to end the spread of HIV by training Community HIV Educators who in turn will educate their groups and family members. We select people from social groups within the community, equip them will HIV information and send them back into their communities to help their peers be aware of the disease and know how to protect themselves or live with it. Help if this is where your heart goes.
