Heart for Huruma

In October this year, Brooke Holmes, Demi Mutch and a group of 8 will be heading over to Nairobi, Kenya to spend two weeks at Huruma Children's Home, Kenya.

During this time, we will be spending time with some incredible children, all with their own powerful stories. As part of this trip, we will also be apart of two of Go Beyond All Borders major initiatives; 'Hampers of Hope' and 'Project H20'.

HAMPERS OF HOPE
Hampers of Hope is a global initiative, providing baskets filled with non-perishable food items to individuals and families living in desperate need.

The Hampers of Hope initiative started when we recognised a need to support single mothers and families, some who were sick and dying of AIDS, with some staple food items. This initiative was pioneered in Kenya and has now grown and provides into communities in Uganda and Thailand.

AU $50 provides a hamper full of essential food items, as well as some soap, toothpaste and a couple of treats. Each basket feeds a small family for approximately one month. We were told by one woman living in the slums of Ngong, Kenya that this basket meant that her children wouldn’t need to go scavenging for food in the local tip. Each basket, and all of the food and products are sourced, are from local markets, warehouses, and businesses, which therefore supports the local economy.

PROJECT H2O
844 million people don’t have clean water. (WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Program (JMP) Report 2017)

31% of schools don’t have clean water. (UNICEF, Advancing WASH in Schools Monitoring, 2015)

Every minute a newborn dies from infection caused by lack of safe water and an unclean environment. (WHO, 2015)

We need your help to bring safe and clean water to people in developing communities that, without your support, risk developing serious diseases that may result in death.

We believe that every man, woman and child deserve the access to safe, clean drinking water.

AU $50 will purchase a water filter and large storage container that will provide clean water for a community of a 100 people for over a year.

Every donation, no matter if it is $2 or $200, will have an impact in providing hope and practical support to families in need.

Will you partner with us as we seek to LOVE LARGE?
