Welcome to Hearts and Hands for Africa
 


Thank you for visiting our site and we want to share with you the excitement we feel about our work in Zambia, Africa.

Our intention is to uplift those living at subsistence level and poverty in a way that empowers them rather doling out hand outs and charity. We want to give back power to the vulnerable to make choices about their lives rather than to be caught in a constant struggle of survival.

Our first focus has been the women in rural areas who care for their own children and orphans. Dr Cary Rasof has based himself an hour from Lusaka and spends most of the year working there setting up our projects which are driven from a microloan plan that fuels small enterprises and gives autonomy and sustainable support to the women.

 


To join the plan the women and their communities are required to build fuel conservation stoves and plant fruit trees in their villages and compounds, helping to replace the many trees that have been destroyed in the past.

Self sustaining projects affiliated to the Micro Loan Plan are Goats for grannies, Kids back to school, Nutrition for Aids and Community Schools.

The results have been heart warming and beyond our dreams and the enthusiasm of those participating in the giving and receiving, are a lesson for us all as we see true empowerment in action.

Love Anne and Cary
