Chinsisi Jonasi is one of the children in my project sponsor. The mother of Chinsinsi has epileptic and mentally retarded; She was raped and became pregnant. After birth, the grandmother took over caring for Chinsinsi. But the mother refused to breastfeed and the mother was unable to buy milk powder. She fed the corn Chinsinsi. Secret kwam in July 2015 in hospital. She was severely malnourished and severely dehydrated. She has almost a month in hospital. After her dismissal Afriana Foundation will assist the grandmother with lactogenic powder, likuni phala and other basic needs such as soap, bottles and clothing.[/av_one_third]
Last month the mother walked away from Chisinsi, no one has been able to find her.
Grandma is separated from her husband and has no home and no food. She lived with her three daughters and granddaughter in the kitchen of her brother. One of the daughters is pregnant. Recently, the brother went to Mozambique to find work there. She now lives in the home of her brother, but the house is in very poor condition. The family of Chinsinsi is not the only one without food. This year there will be a lot of hunger. Last year the harvest was very poor due to lack of rain. There will be many famillies who need help. In most families, the corn after this month (september). They live day by day and try to find food. The new crop will be only in April 2016 his.
The Aricare foundation supports the family of Chisinsi in many different ways. A small but safe and dry house built so that the family has a place to live. We also provide the family until the next harvest season of corn. The hospital costs are paid for the daughter who is pregnant so she can give birth to her baby safely in hospital. We give training so that her grandmother agricultural crop next year will be better
One of the daughters 16 year old; During a visit, I asked her why she did not go to school. She could not really answer me. We talked to her and explained what the benefits of education. After a long conversation he managed to convince her to go back to school. We have 10 s writings 2 pens bought her.
The Afriana Foundation not only helps babies that are included in the project. It looks at the whole family. We give advice, teach and try to make them self-sufficient
