Hands for Africa gives Hands for Haiti
Hands for Africa has been sadly moved by the devastation, death and amputations
in Haiti caused by the 7.0 Magnitude earthquake. When Hands for Africa heard about the hundreds of daily amputations in Haiti, “an amputate or die” choice as a result of earthquake, some victims with rusty hacksaws and vodka as no other instruments or medicine was readily available; we decided to step in and make a difference with these new wave of amputees. Knowing that we specialize with working and helping amputees in Africa and being very cognizant of the immediate urgent needs of the Haitian Amputees, we did not hesitate for a second in assisting where we could.
Hands for Africa sponsors Amputee Sports Club
Hands for Africa knows empowerment is a very important
ingredient in restoring hope. We purchased crutches,
rubber tips, transportation and medical staff for the
amputees so they could enjoy a game of soccer on
the beach.
Hands For Africa Sponsors education for 3 children in Bo
Hands for Africa sponsored education for the youngest of three
children of single mother amputee though high school. Hands for
Africa recognizes education as part of self reliance and knowing
their single mother amputee will not be able to see their educational
task through.
Hands for Africa travels to Sierra Leone
Hands for Africa travelled to all across the
Country of Sierra Leone to meet the victims
of the 1991 bloody civil war caused mostly
by the greed to fill the request of “Blood Diamonds”
from the western world. Thousands are still without
limbs, still displaced and beg on the street. We must
put our hands and hearts together to help these
innocent victims.
