Letter from the Founders
What we have discovered in Tanzania are kind and hard working people who live in poverty with deadly water conditions and suffering from many diseases. We have found malaria to be the number one killer of children under 5 and that all areas of life are affected by this parasite. We discovered hospitals with lack of basic equipment and supplies to care for their people. We discovered children are sent from age 4 to fetch water, mainly little girls that many times are molested and most times never attend school. We see HIV/AIDS killing parents and leaving millions of orphans. We have found 1 of 5 babies die at birth and many of these deaths can be stopped by the purchase of a small clean birthing kit. All of these things creating the cycle of poverty and a people without hope. If we can come along side of the Tanznaians and help provide basic health care, malaria prevntion trianing with nets to protect their families, enhance the hospital equipment, provide water sources, build schools, build orphan homes, sponsor orphans, make a way for girls to attend school, educate in all areas including health issues we can help to save lives and alleviate poverty. If we can share our love and compassion with those in need we can bring hope.
There is so much to be done, the need for water and health issues are enormous. Schools to educate the young and homes for orphans are in great demand. Please find out how you can support vital projects of CHaRA. As stewards of your hard earned giving we will continue working to improve the lives of the people in Tanzania East Africa.
On behalf of CHaRA we want to say thank you. We appreciate the support of our donors and those who go with us. After 10 years of being in this country we see change coming and we are excited and honored to be part of this great transformation.
"Oh, the joys of those who are kind to the poor! The Lord rescues them when they are in trouble. The Lord protects them and keeps them alive. He gives them prosperity in the land." Join us and experience the joy!
Sincerely,
Ron and Carol McDonald
