We are duty bound to the biblical teachings as reflected in the book of Mathews 25 Vs 35-36:
“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.
OUR VISION
To create a window of hope to women and youth by providing life survival skills training.
