Peruvian Farmer Wins David-and-Goliath Battle Against Mining Giant
Community activists in Peru have succeeded in shutting down the creation of a $5 billion open-caste mine near a pristine lake–thanks to a gutsy poor farmer.
These young women could not contain their joy upon hearing that strangers had contributed more than enough money necessary for their care and housing.
Many little girls dream of being princesses. These kids, who have suffered so much, are destined to be living as queens in a castle thanks to the kindness of strangers.
Rafiki Mwema – meaning "Loyal Friend" – is a nonprofit home that educates, houses, and cares for young Kenyan girls who have been sexually abused. The home where the children stay, however, fills up quickly. Girls who have grown into teenagers often end up having to go back to their villages without the emotional support they need.
When they heard the stories of teens forced to leave the home, 7,700 people around the world opened their hearts – and wallets – to make sure these girls could stay together.
The new therapeutic center known as Queen's Castle will offer a more developed program of healing with added support for the Rafiki teenagers. Some donators to the campaign have even offered to sponsor some of the young women in order to continue their therapy.
Keep in touch with the charity's activities by following the Rafiki Mwema Facebook and Instagram pages.
