Donate NowMany Parents have benefited from the saving circle by starting up small businesses to supplement their income,in both their families and Communities.
Donate NowA sickle-cell sufferer is given a female goat on a rotation cycle. This is because of the limited resources of the charity. After the goat given has produced offspring, it is again given to another sickle-cell sufferer. When the goats have multiplied, usually the beneficiary can sell some goats to buy necessary treatment. They provide a family with protein-rich milk, providing valuable nutrition; they can also be bred to help start small businesses for otherwise cash-strapped families. Animal droppings have even been used to fertilize a family’s crops. Our aim is to alleviate poverty, save lives and to promote self sufficiency.
Donate NowWhile eggs are a symbol of Easter, to a sickle-cell sufferer they are a symbol of life. The birds are also a source of food. Eggs contain all the nutrients required by the human body: proteins, fats, carbohydrates, mineral salts and vitamins. They can help to start small businesses.
Donate NowWhile respect is our key value we give piglets to our SCD community. Anyone who receives a one is required to give back two piglets from their pig’s first litter. The first is given back to the Pig Project so it can be given to another person. Selling these piglets can enable the beneficiary to earn enough money to pay for a child’s school fees or provide food and other basic necessities for him or her and the family. In time, some of the offspring of the original pig that a sufferer receives can provide meat for the rest of the family. They can also be bred to help start small businesses
Donate NowMost pain related to SCD can be treated with over-the- counter pain medications such as folic acid, penicillin, ibuprofen and aspirin daily, along with additional pain medication. Some children may be admitted to the hospital for intensive treatment.
Donate NowThis is a project where we give out clothes and shoes to sickle-cell sufferers for them to keep warm. The shoes help them to avoid infections which can result in chronic ulcers. Below is an example of a sufferer’s foot ulcer.
