Project “a Cry, a Heart”
A Cry: That of these children in despair.
A Heart: That of all those who hear this cry and come to their aid. A heart that gives and that gives itself.
“A Cry, A Heart” is a medical assistance project by national and foreign volunteer health professionals, carried out in orphanages, disadvantaged localities, refugee camps or health points temporarily set up by “JFC” with the agreement of the local health authorities.
This will mainly involve organizing consultations, screening campaigns and taking charge of children in their environment or in partner health centers.
It will also be
– Help with the evacuation of children requiring care abroad.
– To promote the exchange of experience between health professionals within the framework of capacity building for better local care of children.
– To support with voluntary staff, equipment and basic necessities of local health centers, working in precariousness, for better care of children.
Project “UDHAMINI”
”UDHAMINI” which means Sponsorship in Swahili, is a project which consists in setting up a safe and sustainable sponsorship system for underprivileged children in order to support them in various situations: Studies, Life Project, Illnesses etc. with an emphasis on local sponsorship.
“To sponsor a child is to change his life”
Project “SMILE”
The “SMILE” project consists of setting up play areas for children in a few public hospitals in the DRC in order to provide them with a permanent setting for relaxation.
Indeed, play is one of the means for a holistic therapy of the child.
The sad observation made in public hospitals in the DRC, particularly in its disadvantaged localities, is the lack of infrastructure to offer hospitalized children a space for relaxation and games in order to make their daily life in the hospital less grim, especially for those suffering from chronic, disabled or incurable diseases requiring very long hospital stays.
The “SMILE” project is to put smiles back on these children.
A child who is smiling and having fun is a big step towards healing.
