Zambia:
Lifestyle Health Foundation has recently been added to CAZ Foundation. Lifestyle Health Foundation is located in Livingstone , Zambia , Africa . This foundation caters to street children and orphans who are living with HIV/AIDS. This not for profit organization is dedicated to helping the Zambian society through a Christ-centered approach. Lifestyle Health Foundation is currently caring for 116 orphans; most of whom have lost parents due to HIV/AIDS related sickness. They also assist in caring for HIV/AIDS patients who have been rejected by their relatives because of the stigma that this virus carries. They provide for these children by supplying them with food and other basic needs. By helping and caring for these children, and providing a program aimed at rehabilitating their lives, Lifestyle Health Foundation hopes to re-integrating them back into the community and into school. These children suffering from AIDS related illnesses need special immune boosting foods and medicine. Lifestyle Health Foundation needs products such as Ambrotose™ and Glyco·Bears™ to be donated. These medicines provide major improvements in these children’s immune systems and energy level.
CAZ Foundation helps in finding donations and raising money for the Lifestyle Health Foundation. We are hoping to partner with Mannatech, the supplier of these medications, in order to make these medicines more available to these children. There are a few other projects we are working on:
- Lifestyle Health Foundation needs $42,000 for construction of a hospice for the HIV/AIDS orphans.
- They also are hoping to purchase a utility truck. The estimated cost is $9500.
- We are hoping to build a water well in 2007, that will bring clean water to the Lifestyle Health Foundation facility.
These projects carry big numbers, however, we believe that it is possible with hard work, dedication, the help of you, and God’s will.
