Challenge

Help children like Brilliant. Brilliant is 13 years old and lives at Joel's Place, a home at MSC Zimbabwe. He is energetic and always has a smile on his face. Brilliant has spina bifida and had his lower limbs amputated in 2017. That has not deterred him from bringing joy to everyone he meets. Brilliant is inquisitive and adventurous. Support Brilliant and the children at MSC Zimbabwe to ensure that they continue to thrive. Your gift provides food, water, housing, school fees, and medical care.

Solution

What began as a single nutrition program has evolved into three children's homes, four daily nutrition programs feeding over 600 children a day, two preschools, Potter's House - a training center, substantial farming programs, and a chapel which serves the local community. The three children's homes include Generosity and Freedom, for children affected by HIV and AIDS, and Joel's Place, for children with disabilities. There are over 55 children living in these three homes at present.

Long-Term Impact

Our objective is to provide these children with a safe and healthy place to live, where they have care and therapy. MSC's purpose is to advance the moral, mental, and physical well being of children with disabilities.
