Equip AIDS’ Care Centers

Hospices give AIDS’ patients an opportunity to spend their last few months in a dignified way. They also provide an opportunity for Christian workers to demonstrate Christ’s love to these suffering people. Global Action has received enough donated medical equipment for two AIDS’ hospices in Africa and India. All gifts will cover the shipping costs of this equipment.

Gift of $32 to ship a hospital bed and mattress for an AIDS’ hospice in Africa or India

Gift of $10 to ship a portable toilet for an AIDS’ hospice

CINAFHSHIP

Ship Containers of Medical Supplies

Quality medical facilities are the norm for those of us living in the United States. There are probably at least 100 dialysis machines in your city. But imagine places where there are only two for an entire country! Hospitals and medical centers in Sweden have donated millions of dollars worth of quality medical equipment and supplies. Global Action has received requests from 12 hospitals worldwide for this equipment. Though free, we still need to get it to the locations which desperately need it!

Gift of $55 to help ship medical equipment to remote hospitals worldwide and change whole communities as Christ’s love is shown through quality medical care

Gift of $21,900 will ship an entire container

Hope for African Women

Women in East and Central Africa have very few opportunities for employment, with unemployment in some countries at nearly 70%. These women are often forced to live and beg on the streets to support themselves. Young widows have the additional responsibility of feeding their children any way they can. Global Action, working with partner organizations, is providing a 10-month training program for these women, teaching them micro-enterprise skills and helping them get started in small businesses. Hundreds of women now have a better life because of this effective ministry

Gift of $64.20 to provide a month of training in life skills, discipleship and a micro-business for a needy woman in East and Central Africa

$642 to provide 10 months of training

CETHMICROE

“Thank you - you saved my life! A year ago I was a prostitute and beggar on the city streets. Then I met Christ and learned a trade through the micro-enterprise -program. Now I am earning money, paying for my children to go to school and caring for my elderly parents.” - Almaz, Ethiopia

Feed AIDS’ Widows and Orphans Physically and Spiritually

In Africa, many AIDS’ widows are infected by HIV and struggle to provide food and shelter for their children and other AIDS’ orphans they are helping to raise. A weekly program by Christian women furnishes a nutritious meal for these families, basic food supplies for the week and spiritual discipleship and counseling.

Gift of $18.50 to provide food once a week for a family for one month in Africa

Nourish a Family with a Goat

One of the greatest needs of AIDS’ orphans in rural areas of Africa is nutritious meals. Many of them are malnourished and need to supplement

their diets with good nutrients. Goats, given by local Christian women, provide milk and cheese for these young ones. The goats are also bred

to provide additional goats for village families who are raising AIDS’ orphans.

Gift of $250 to provide one goat for a family raising AIDS’ orphans in East Africa

Educate a Child with the Gift of Honey

With millions of AIDS’ orphans in Africa, villages are struggling to provide assistance and keep these youth in school, giving hope for their future. In order to raise the school fees, families who have taken in AIDS’ orphans are given a beehive by local Christian women leaders. When they sell the honey, the proceeds cover school fees for one year for the orphan.

Gift of $50 to give one beehive to a family raising an AIDS’ orphan in Africa
