A Voice to the Voiceless...
 
A Friend in Need, Inc. is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization who just returned from KaPunga, Swaziland to see the opening of the Swazi Life Center, encourage the care workers and play with the children.  To learn about the story behind this Life Center click here. We will be sharing more pictures in the days and weeks to come of this wonderful event! Please check back often.
 

Look at what else A Friend in Need has done to help families living in poverty!

» Provided a clean-water well to a community that lacked access to clean drinking water. Now, choosing between giving an infant unhealthy water and nursing with HIV infected milk is no longer a choice a mother needs to make.
 
» Supplied tools, vegetables, seeds, a Tilapia pond, a barnyard full of animals, fruit trees and training to help families produce the most bountiful harvest possible, all helping to provide nutrition so they can be strong in their fight against AIDS.
 
» Built a play room in the Blue Roof Clinic in Surban, S. Africa as a safe place for children to play while their parents receive life-sustaining treatment for HIV/AIDS.
 
» Annually sponsors the "Friends for the Future" Scholarship, which recognizes a local high school student who plans on using their post high school education to better the lives of others.
 
» Provided tuition assistance to a special needs student.
 
» Supplied backpacks filled with school supplies for 200 students in 6 different schools over southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois.
 
» Provided holistic care and food distribution packets for orphans.
