You Can Make It Happen In Africa


You've asked, "How can I help?, What can I do to really make a difference in Africa?"

Each year we receive a list of projects that our African Partners hope to be able to get done during the year. Without your help it is impossible to have these needs met. Please consider partnering with Heart for Africa and our African Partners to bring HOPE to the people and children of Africa. Please pray and ask God what your part in Africa is this year.

Are you to build a school for children who have no hope of an education?
Are you to buy a dairy cow so children can have the milk that they so desperately need?
Is your family or small group to fund a bore hole so that a whole village can have the clean water that they have never had?
Are you to support a children’s feeding program?
