Building a world where all people can be happy

Grant to Village Health Works

 

    

Village Health Works (VHW) operates a health clinic in the village of Kiguta, Burundi. Since its opening in December of 2007, the clinic has seen over 20,000 patients. The Nutrition and Food Security Project is a new initiative of VHW to link the treatment of malnutrition with long-term food security. The $10,000 grant from the AllPeopleBeHappy foundation is being used to procure supplies and to pay 8 Agricultural Assistant Workers to teach villagers on how to grow more nutritious food, and how to establish and maintain home gardens.  (www.villagehealthworks.org

We have initiated an AllPeopleBeHappy Volunteer Service Grant.  Dedicated overseas volunteers not only donate their time, but they have to pay their own expenses and often are expected to contribute to the cost of supplies and services.  We will be offering matching grants to help offset these expenses.  For the Summer 2010 awards, organizations currently receiving AllPeopleBeHappy foundation grants have been invited to submit applicants.
