Self Help Development works in Africa

1,000s of people contribute every year

to the ongoing work of Self Help development International

in Africa. Whole communities have been given the

skills and knowledge to help themselves. The technologies

assist them in growing produce to feed their families and

sell surpluses, social amenities, training, and skills

to make their future happier.

Some of the modest investments by Self

Help are in Irrigation and water development

projects. They promote improved farming

techniques, in horticulture, enviornmental

protection and restoration, forestry,

the upgrading and construction of hospitals,

health centers and schools and training

independent evaculators. THis has been

so useful it has helped 2 million people in

20 years.

THe Farmers Grow Fund

is used to plant trees, provide seeds,

build ponds and boreholes, develop agricultural

systems, support activities that improve yields,

diversify crop production, and help rural

African communities.

20 million tree seedlings are planted. Self Help has supported

hundreds of irrigated farming systems, has capped springs and provided

boreholes. You can contact fundraising at fundraising@shdi.org

about the Farmers Grow Fund. The more food in Africa the better.

Think about all those people in Africa that need to be fed.

The Self Help Seed Fund is also doing BIG things.

They provide seed capital for creation and development of

primary co operatives. They help also to provide additional

revenue and resources and training programs for co-operative

movement.

They do more things like:

provide seed capital to develop micro agri processing enterprises

in the household, community, and co operative levels

Supports growth of credits and savings schemes

Supports developments of regional activities in Ethiopia

Is a way for another source of employment, especially for rural youth.

Supports the development of community based organizations.

ANd for more details on that contact them by email

Fundraising@shdi.org.

Self help has donated a water pump.

This help rids the water of contaminants. THis well

helps over 2,500 people. This water pump has helped

the water borne diseases to fall drastically.

Laurence and Margaret are Self Help model

farmers. They have planted mango trees, improved

maize, and a vegetable plot with potatoes,

cabbage and peppers.

The Center of Hope (Haiti)

charismaallover — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 21:45:13 +0000

Everyday Our Black Kids in Africa have to wonder

where their resources are coming from. They need to

be able to have a great life with all necessities.

Life does not have to be hard. It just takes people

with great mentalities to make a difference.

It takes people having a heart and a will to

make something happen. It takes those

willing to be UNselfish instead of Selfish.

The center of Hope Haiti is a non profit organization.

It’s dedicated to helping orphans in Haiti. They help

by providing shelter, educaion, nutrition, emotional security

healthcare and life skills to our Black individuals.

$100 would pay for school supplies of Our Black kids.

$500 could get them a bed.

$500-$2,000 would take care of the construction needs

If you want to volunteer at an orphanage in Hinche,

Haiti email James@centerofhope-haiti.org

There’s never a such thing as too much helping.

THe question is how can the help spread

around to get to everyone? I’m thinking to myself

that there needs to be a water well built in every

city in Africa. That’s how they will get the freshest

water. NOw for this organization helping our

Black people in Haiti!

Friends of the Children of Haiti

supports Haiti’s medical needs.

For 20 years, hundreds of people have volunteered

logistical support, the things it takes to run a medical

clinic.

educational credit to registered nurses and Emts involved

in the FOTCOH.

puzzle. Everyone adding onto yours makes it

close to the destination. It’s like a network of

helping.

They are kids in need of extra help

especially because their parents died and now

they are orphans. A child can only do so much.

But adults can do a lot more. So go ahead

and step into position to help.

BOOKS for Africa

Is a non profit organization.

THis organization takes on the task of

collecting, sorting, and shipping

books to Africa. I know you’ve heard many times

that knowledge is power. So true. So true. Books

with a positive message, teaching about our

Black History involving our Black achievements,

and books on life skills will give our BLack

African people all the hope in the world.

From hope they can feel happy. From

happiness, they can get motivation.

A book can be so memorable

and when you look at the things around

you, you can already know what it is

or what it means. I am specifically thinking

about Black History books involving Black

Achievements but this applies to other

books OUr Black people can learn from.

Books can be donated by publishers,

schools, libraries, individuals, and organizations.

They are looked through and organized by

volunteers who select books age and subject

appropriate.

They are shipped in containers paid for

by us. It cost 38 US cents to send a book

from America to Africa. Since 19888, BOoks

for Africa has sent 18 milllion books.

They filled library shelves and classrooms.

BFA partners like YMCA’s, catholic and protestant

church Dioceses, local member clubs of

Rotary International and other non

government organizations deliver the books.

Algeria, Angola, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso,

Cameroon, Cape Verde, Chad, Congo, cote d’ivoire,

Ethiopiaid needs OUr help, is partnered with 19 projects and needs donation for OUR BLACK people in Ethiopia!

charismaallover — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 02:03:29 +0000

Everyday they live and everyday they need help.

They need everything they can get for survival.

It is ridiculous how there’s not enough

people helping. But people are stealing

from Africa, as you’ve heard in my other

blog posts. THey are stealing and

these people in need should be getting

the money and supplies. OH, but there are some

very greedy people who will take from the

people who need stuff the most.

Ethiopiaid has our BLack people in mind. Their

mission is to protect our Black people from proverty,

sickness, protect health and get advanced education.

Ethiopiaid supports 19 partner projects in

as well as around Ethiopia’s capital

Addis Ababa.

Polio still exists in Africa because of the lack

of resources in some areas. It is one of those

terrible paralyzing illnesses.

The Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital

treats women with fistula.

Addis Ababa WOmen’s Health Centre

provides service for pregnancy and contraception.

The House of Angels, this is an

orphanage for people who lost their parents.

Black Lion HOspital

is a hospital that needs basic medical supplies and

equipment.

Education:

Hope Enterprises has founded a daily Street

Children’s Breakfast to urge attendance to

free schooling after each meal.

Hope University College

Ethiopia donated ONe million dollars for

the building of a new university in Addis

Ababa to train Ethiopia’s leaders.

Addis Ababa University

It’s one of Ethiopia’s most honorable Universities

and has been supported by Ethiopiaid since the

year 2000. They even purchased a new

computer laboratory.

Addis Development Vision

They are bringing the disabled together

with those not disabled in education.

people.

Facilitators for Change Ethiopia

This program allows many women in Ethiopia

to get loans to set up busineses and earn

wages.

St. Francis Integrated Development Organization

helps to provide housing, running water,

and electricity. Dedicating yourself to a great

cause is what I call using your time wisely.

The world and people living in it needs order.

If one thing is out of order that affects

something else. Just like you would have

difficulty riding a bike with flat tires.

THe rest of the bike is ok, but the flat

tires so you down. don’t it? That’s like

the situation in Ethiopia. Our Black

people in Ethiopia need help!
