Mwana is a wonderful organization that is doing impactful groundwork and making a huge difference in the lives of some very vulnerable people. Orphan care is a very personal issue for me. My sisters lived in an orphanage before my family adopted them and I've always been grateful to the people who provided the care they needed there. Orphan care is an important thing to support and maintain, and Mwana is an organization that does this in the best possible way.
I am fundraising for the CAREGIVERS at the Mwana Refuge. The Mwana women who serve as caregivers work tirelessly all throughout each day to care for the holistic needs of the children. From dancing to reading time to praise and worship and outdoor play, these mamas show the children safety and love. Hiring local caregivers is also critical in orphan prevention, as providing vulnerable women with stable employment like this is one of the key ways to preserve families.
