In the Lord's Hands

IN THE LORD'S HANDS Our basic mission: We desire to be "the Lord's Hands" in helping the poor and the needy. The following materials are from In the Lord's Hands website Photos are on the website. The Lord's Hands NGO WHO ARE WE? ________________________________________ The Lord's Hands is a charitable and humanitarian NGO founded on human and Christian values centered on the true love of neighbor. It has been said: 'Too often we notice the needs around us, hoping that someone from far away will magically appear to meet those needs. Perhaps we wait for experts with specialized knowledge to solve specific problems. When we do this, we deprive our neighbor of the service we could render, and we deprive ourselves of the opportunity to serve. While there is nothing wrong with experts, let us face it: there will never be enough of them to solve all the problems.' We are not experts, nor rich or famous, but we have a reverence for life and a desire to be 'the Lord's Hands' in helping the poor and the needy. Please add greater meaning to your life today and join us in creating a better tomorrow! Our resources consist of financial contributions from active members, donations and volunteer's hours of service.

Join us to fight Famine Mission Famine is one of the most common evils in our communities because of natural disasters, conflicts, unstable economic situations, and the lack of fundamentals in management and self-reliance principles. The goal is to support communities by training them on small projects in the processing, production, and conservation of food products. Strategies Food for All Program Based on local realities, we identify communities of different strata of our populations in the grip of hunger, living in rural areas and some in urban areas and help them to take charge of themselves by efficiently exploiting natural resources at their disposal. With our partners who are experts in the field, we provide basic training, provide production tools such as watering cans, seeds, etc. Beneficiaries commit to perpetuate this culture in their families and commit to contributing with resources such as land for gardening, time, and availability to learn and share knowledge on agricultural techniques they receive from our program.

PROJECTS IN DEVELOPMENT Emergency Responses NGO Partnerships Emergency Responses Becoming inevitable, natural disasters are more and more frequent in our communities, creating enormous damage. Our mission is that whenever one occurs within our reach, that we provide assistance and relief to the victims. It has been reported that on average, humanitarian crises are more complex than at any time in the last 15 years, and last nearly three years longer than they used to. Conflict, migration, climate change and now the unexpected pandemic (COVID-19) are the key trends driving these crises. Critical Emergency Responses to Address: - Providing the basics (Soap, Sanitizers, masks etc.) - Reinforce Sanitation to minimize infection As they arise in our area of activities, Emergency responses will be posted and best approaches shared on our website and social media pages Strategies In partnership with local institutions, we identify and quantify needs to find a more effective approach to addressing the emergency. We mobilize volunteers, collect donations in kind and in cash depending on the type of disaster and work closely with the competent structures to relieve the affected communities. NGO Partnerships Recognizing the contribution that other charitable structures and institutions make to our communities, it will always be an honor for us to partner with NGO's and other charitable structures operating in the Humanitarian and environmental sector. We also recognize the challenge being faced by International organizations in implementing projects in our region. We are committed to engaging with them in an ethical and professional way to carry and assist with projects implementation and impact evaluation.

Fundacja Kasisi

On April 11, 2013, Kasisi Foundation was established with its mission to help children by providing ongoing and stable support for a Zambian orphanage. It is a home for over 230 children. They are orphans, half-orphans, victims of domestic and sexual violence, human trafficking, street children and kids that have been abandoned in the bush, in empty buildings or in latrines. A third of the children are ill, some with physical and mental disabilities. From the start we never wanted to run just a charity project and then move on. We made a commitment to stay in Kasisi (hence the name of the foundation, which identifies us so strongly with the place). We wanted to take care of Kasisi as if it was our own home. Our aim is simple - we want to give these children back their childhood and also give them a home, where they will feel important and loved. We also make sure that they can eat properly, learn, develop their passions as well as live and receive medical care in conditions that every child deserves. We started off by assisting Kasisi by saving lives. We managed to renovate a mini-clinic, equip it with equipment that allows for extensive on-site diagnostics, ensure a constant supply of medicines and to purchase an ambulance. We have created medical facilities to which children in Zambia rarely have access. As a result, we have reduced child mortality to practically zero. The next step was to improve the quality and quantity of the children's meals. Since the foundation has existed there is no longer the eternal dilemma of choosing whether to pay for food or medicine in Kasisi. Previously the children used to eat mainly bread and nshima (a local type of porridge), and meat was only available once a week. We have drastically improved the food supply and raised its quality. Long-term changes in children's development have become apparent. The number of illnesses has decreased, the children's performance in school has improved, and - perhaps most pleasing of all - they have begun talking openly about their dreams! Today, we are also trying to fulfil the children's dreams of attending the best schools in Zambia. Moreover, we pay for two of the children's medical studies in Poland and for the others we organise trips for them to get to know their country, take them to the cinema as well as arrange painting and music workshops. Furthermore, we renovate the houses in which the children live on an ongoing basis. The Kasisi Children's Home is regarded as a model institution by the Zambian authorities. However, this does not mean that our needs as a home have been satisfied. On the contrary, they are growing. More and more disadvantaged children come to us: those who need special care and who have disabilities. To be able to provide them with the best possible help, we built and equiped a new, professional physiotherapy room. During last 10 years we have witnessed more than once the power of many people giving even the smallest amounts. Thanks to them Kassisi has changed and is still changing. That is why we would like to encourage you to assist the children regularly through the "Adoptions from the Heart" project. This is a project in which anyone can help a chosen child with any amount of money by adopting them from a distance. All one needs to do is go to our website and choose the child they want to support. For us there are no sums regarded as too small - each one is worth its weight in gold. What is most important to us is that the support is given regularly. We have a fixed budget which enables us to respond to the children's needs on an ongoing basis. Your business can become a catalyst for change in the lives of these vulnerable children. We offer unique opportunities for corporate partnership, allowing your business to contribute to meaningful projects. One such endeavor includes the collaborative effort to equip a new library for the children in Kasisi, fostering their education and growth. Your participation can make a significant difference in the lives of these children, and we look forward to the possibility of working together towards a better tomorrow.
