Hiari Orphanage Centre in Tanzania
The
target charity for the year 2009 is Hiari Orphanage Center
in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The centre is run by a local
non-governmental organisation. Hiari currently provides a home for 78
children between the ages of one and eighteen. Many of them have
been orphaned by AIDS.
Help with Hygiene And Housing
The Queen of Hearts 2009
Mirfat Awadh Abdulrahim established a campaign to raise funds
for the orphanage in her former home town. Our objective is to help the orphanage develop their operations and
the conditions of the children living there.
Despite
the efforts of the orphanage staff, much help is needed to
improve the lives of the children staying at Hiari. Issues such as
hygiene, medical care and housing conditions are of utmost
importance in developing the structure of the centre.
Making a Difference
Right now, The Queen of Hearts Development
Initiative is raising money to provide the centre with beds and
mosquito nets. The nets can save lives because malaria is a common
cause of death in Tanzania. |
