Health

Disabilities

This began with the request for one wheelchair for a child to be brought in our container in 2010. We were not sure if we would be able to locate a wheelchair but by the time of the shipment, the request had turned into 12 and the need was met. People living with disabilities face many challenges, especially in a third world country. Many of these people are kept inside without therapy or medical help. Families are not able to carry the person outside or know what else they can do but let them lie on the ground or in a bed. Each family story is different, but each family is filled with joy as we lift their loved one off the ground into a wheelchair. CHaRA has been able to help the therapy departments of all three Zanzibar Islands. In addition, we have been able to provide surgery and support for many families. We continue to help children with disabilities as we are able.

Girl’s Time

RESTORING HOPE & DIGNITY by providing reusable feminine hygiene kits
Girl’s Time started from a need, girls and women without feminine supplies. All women share this common bond: Our monthly period. But girls in rural Tanzania are using leaves, cardboard, old rags and anything else they can find to meet the need each month. There is a lack of supplies and a lack of money to buy disposable supplies (if they can be found). Disposing them leads to environmental problems.
A girl will miss more than 50 days of school each year because of her period, causing problems with her education. Girls at school and women at work are met with much harassment and shame for a natural cycle of womanhood. There are many myths surrounding their periods. Education is needed. At our first meeting girls stood and cheered when they received their new supplies and “the good teaching”.
We are excited to help bring truthful teaching and a solution to their needs. Our CHaRA team is making reusable feminine hygiene kits that will be given to those in need. As part of this program we are taking our purity program to both boys and girls. They will learn God’s way for sex and marriage. Respect and integrity will become part of their lives.
We pray they encounter God and know His true love!
