This Mother’s Day, Africare invites you to make a special
contribution in honor of someone you cherish and in support of mothers in Africa. Your contribution will carry a special meaning as it passes through
the hands of families across the African continent, beginning with one of the most
cherished and central contributors to the African family: Women!
African women are the mothers, the farmers, the fetchers of
water, and the ones who preform all of the other essentials of running and maintaining the
African family. They stand as the backbone of their communities and represent the
promise of growth and sustainability in
Africa.
Your gift this Mother’s Day can do what it has never done
before-- change lives! Change a life like Adama's:

By implementing programs that
empower women through the areas of education, health, water, and agriculture,
Africare not only reaches out to women but to their families and communities
as well. For 39 years, Africare
has worked to close the gender gap in
Africa
while simultaneously employing solutions for sustainable development on the continent.
Over one 170 projects like the one above span every region of the African continent. All place women at the forefront of
development in an effort to improve the quality of life for the people in
Africa
.
Your gift to a special Mom this year can change a life, change a community, change a continent! Thank you for your support!
