Our organization was formed to help families with many children survive the rigors of life. We help with education and the provision of basic needs, food, shelter, etc. We also help those in need of medical attention: helping a family take care of a sick child, providing the resources to have an operation, and once we were even able to send a mother and her sick child abroad for an operation in the United States. Our Club also helps those who are not necessarily in a difficult situation but have a desire to do something that they cannot do on their own, for instance, receive an education. We do our best to encourage the community to help us and have advertised our organization and goals on television and other local media. We want people to know about us and the obstacles we are trying to combat. Any and all help is appreciated and we would be happy to provide more information about our organization to anyone interested in assisting us in our cause.
