The Ana Bella Foundation is a network of women survivors who help 2000 abused women a year to break the silence, reinsert into the labor market and recover their lives not as victims but as happy and victorious women. Thanks for joining our group, your monthly euro is transformed by our volunteers into Love in Action to help 20 women and their kids access to an independent house after the shelter.

Close to Liberia's capital Monrovia, Martha Dewellie, a 54 years old Liberian teacher, has founded this home for Orphans over 30 years ago. Nowadays 19 babies, children, teenagers and young adults are living together as a family. The Orphanage consists only of a common room, a bedroom for boys, one for girls and latrines. There's no access to electricity or running water and they struggle for food and clothes. Recently a basic school was built, which still misses teaching material, chairs..

From a family project we created an NGO to help an Orphanage www.axudaburundi.org After helping to rebuild the orphanage with a minimum of habitability. Now we have hired a person there (€ 150/month), to better monitor the aid. And in addition to sending aid and powdered milk for infants, we are organizing farm fields and animal husbandry so that at least in part they can be self-sufficient. Help us give them a chance.
