With your help, we worked in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. Our partnership in compassion supported 17 programs and reached 45,506 girls and women across the region. Women like Priscilla from Zimbabwe, who with your support, was able to sell her crops and start poultry farming, selling eggs to grow her income stream and helping pay for her grandchildren’s education.
Our partner Caritas Hwange also helped rehabilitate the dip tank in her community so that Priscilla’s cattle can be healthy and free from tick-borne diseases.
Together, we have worked hand-in-hand with generous supporters like you to help communities in Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Samoa and Tonga. As partners in compassion, your kindness helped support the work of 12 programs and reached 3,914 children and young people across the region.
This includes children like six-year-old Lenty from Solomon Islands who participated in the Singing Our Way to Safety program, implemented by our partner Caritas Australia Solomon Islands. The program teaches students like Lenty how to stay safe, be prepared and respond to natural disasters.
Thank you for partnering with vulnerable communities in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal, Philippines, Timor-Leste and Vietnam. Together, we reached 6,450 people with disabilities and supported 32 programs across the Asia region.
One of the people impacted by your compassion is Salin from Cambodia.
