Build a School
Can you imagine attending school under a tree? Many children in impoverished communities around the world do exactly that. Without adequate shelter and educational supplies many children stop attending school altogether.
Your gift to construct a school and/or renovate existing schools offers a safe, productive learning environment that can make the difference in the lives of the children and their communities.
CREN - Centre for Rehabilitation, Education & Nutrition

It costs $50 to treat and save the life of a severely malnourished child, yes only $50. Please donate today!
Chickens
Chickens are a valuable source of nutrition. The protein in eggs is the highest quality protein found in any food, as well as an excellent source of choline - an essential nutrient that contributes to fetal brain development and helps prevent birth defects. Beside the nutritional benefits, the raising and selling of chickens and eggs can provide an ecomonic benefit.
Children's Shoes
Walking is a way of life for impoverished children. Here is an opportunity to purchase shoes for ten children knowing that they will think of you and your kindness every step of the way.
Deep Well
Did you know that if the average distance to the moon is 394,400 km, African women together walk the equivalent of a trip to the moon and back 16 times a day to supply their households with water?
The saddest part of this is the water they bring back is usually contaminated and carries with it all kinds of disease.
With a well in the community, not only is the drinking water much safer, the physical demand on women is lessened immensely and they can spend more time on income generating activities.
Diesel Fuel
$100 will purchase approximately 67 litres of fuel for the tractor. A tractor plays a key role in the community farm to help multiply the production of successful crops.
Donkey
In developing countries women and children are often seen carrying supplies that come close to equalling their body weight. The physical toll is often crippling. Donkeys are strong and reliable and are the perfect companion to assist families.
Ducks
Ducks provide a variety of benefits to families. The eggs can be eaten or sold; their down feathers offer warmth and insulation as well as product to sell, and they produce fertilizer which encourages crop growth.
Education for One Child
Provide education for one child for a year!
Millions of children are unable to attend school because their families simply cannot afford it.
Your gift will ensure that one child can pay their fees, as well as be equipped with the supplies needed for that school year.
