In the news and on the internet, many refer to the Congo as "the rape capital of the world".......how can 5 words contain such heart break? There are so many shattered lives hidden in those 5 words......broken homes.....destroyed families......disease......and emotional or even physical deaths......here is one of them.....she was soon to give birth......age?.....13......

How can we help?......

support one person at a time.......

encourage one person at a time.......

help one person at a time find sustainable ways to support themselves.....

over time,  the message will become clear.....

THIS IS NOT OK WITH US!!
