 UjimaCare is
committed to enhancing the lives of abandoned children in remote
communities worldwide. We have recognized that humanitarian
relief rarely reaches the remote areas or villagers, even though
they are often the ones who need it more urgently.
As far as we are concerned, every single person matters, whether in a
vicinity of excellent media coverage or not, we believe that ethnic
communities worldwide would benefit from being a part of the UjimaCare
Foundation Family. Our focus on the community allows us to have a
broader reaching effect in the lives of children and families who have
become vulnerable as a result of war, illness and extenuating
circumstances.
What we do:
UjimaCare has enumerable projects planned and in
progress. We additionally work with National Organizations to
build safer communities for those affected in these rural areas.
Through experience, planning and studious research, we locate areas
where change can be implemented through a small sacrifice and
excellent vision. We frequent these areas, adjudge the local necessities
and we collaborate with the people and other volunteers to
establish a more suitable life and future, by offerring the necessary
skills, training, education and the required facilities.
We spend quality time with the children doing activities such as
playing with them, reading to them and interacting with them so we can
get a better perspective of how and what their personal needs are to
better customize a response that will meet their needs. This inevitably
helps build a stronger foundation for the children's future. |

 How We Do It
Using a variety of
activities we share with them simple items like balloons, ice cream or
something fun just to let them know we care. These are simple things
that children in western cultures easily take for granted but to these
indigent children it's like Christmas!
Ultimately, when it's time for us to leave, they hold tightly onto us,
their tiny arms wrap around our legs and their little hands pull
at the bottom of our clothes, begging us not to go, not to leave
them! Their smile constantly reminds us that what we
cultivated into their lives means the world to them. They begin to ask
and wonder when will they ever experience again the fun and
love they enjoyed from the time we spent together, their eyes
desperately communicating their desire to be loved, for a few
more minutes of our time, for one more hug or simply for a promise
that we will be back.
From our perspective, it is just a single day out of our self absorbed
busy week, but for them it is a moment of hope, as they begin to feel
valued and cheerished from a simple thing such as a hug and the
knowledge or assurance that there is someone in this word that
genuinely desires to be with and love them. We serve only by being who
we are and that is usually all that is required to make such an
enormous impact.

The care that we
provide is directed in numerous various ways. Our efforts include fund
raising through donations and gifts, which are then judiciously
disbursed where the needs are most pressing.
Additionaly we have a program dubbed
"Lend-A-Hand" where generous volunteers, like you, can visit a project
site and offer their time and expertise in numerous ways such as,
mentoring the local children and assisting with construction projects.
Every volunteer acquires a personal experience with the children and
families helped and a genuine ability to possitively affect the
lives of people that they otherwise would have never met.
The-Lend-A Hand Project empowers you to participate in restoring hope to
those children who have been removed from their families due to
extenuating circumstances like poverty, disease or in certain
instances, war. We are constantly growing and we would like you to grow
with us. Please feel free to contact us to find out more about our current projects around the world. Even if
you're unable to personally visit a project site, with the
Lend-A-Hand Project, then just donate right here on our web site. By making a tax deductible DONATION now, you can possitively affect the direction of a child's future. |
