What You Provide |
|
|
|
Never underestimate
the value of your
contribution, no matter how small. Our combined effort
creates miracles in the lives of children who would otherwise remain
extremely poor and forgotten. |
|
Food and Clean Water...
You help us to provide a little body with desperately needed
nourishment. We purchase local staple non-perishables like
rice, beans and maize-meal, and pay for supplies of locally
available vegetables, fruits and protein sources.
Water to a poverty stricken child in Africa can
be a matter of life and death. It is often contaminated with any
number of parasites or waste products. Christian Hands looks to
constructing fresh water wells where it would benefit the most
number of children, such as in a rural or slum school.
$10.00 will feed a hungry school age child for a month.
$20.00 will feed, clothe and educate a poor child for a
month.
$1500.00 will fund a deep fresh water well that will
serve a mission school and community that currently has no
running water, providing life-giving water for generations to
come.

Education...
Projects include providing school uniforms, supplies and
teaching materials for struggling schools that would
have to close without financial assistance. The teachers
in these types of schools often live below the poverty
line themselves but are selflessly teaching the poorest
children. Your contribution gives the gift that
cannot be taken away.
