I have had an interest in Africa and helping however I can for a while now, but recently my heart has really been burning for my neighbors and brothers and sisters in this oh, so forgotten continent. So, here and now, I'd like to be a voice for the unspoken living in a continent in dire need of so much love and aid. One group helping is called Every Child Ministries. A list of how they help others in Africa is below. You can check them out at www.ecmafrica.org or by contacting them at (219)996-4201. Please do not forget those in need in beloved Africa. :)
