Both Helpers and Helped

Maurine with doggie gift from Kali
The stories from the CSS, orphan support groups are heartwarming. The Kafwa say many of the children do not have food, clothes, shoes, or soap and that "you can see in their eyes they have not eaten." So many children are being helped by the Kafwa and modest HealthEd Connect budget. A new insight was shared by Maurine, however, the leader of the CSS in Chipulukusu when she said, "It is not just the children you are helping---it is us too." The information shared in the training opened up new avenues of healing for the Kafwa themselves who had unresolved grief from their own childhoods.
