WOMEN’S HEALTH PROGRAM
Supporting the wellbeing of women
Women are the lifeblood of communities, families and homes. In many third world countries, it’s common for women to still be the keepers of their homes. When women suffer, it has a ripple effect on their families, home and community life. This is why it’s so important to support the wellbeing of women, which in turn will help strengthen their families and their local communities too.
Here are a few of the many ways we support women in Africa.

Valerie carried the weight of a four kilogram tumour that caused her ridicule and shame for over 25 years.
But her heart broke the most when she found a similar tumour developing on her daughter’s face.
