Salem Brotherhood
RJW has been working with Salem Brotherhood since 1997, providing assistance for the construction of buildings, sponsorship of children, medical provision and educational material.
Below is a brief update on some of the work Salem is doing.
Salem's work in helping orphaned and vulnerable children in need continues to be heavily oversubscribed in relation to the resources available.

Children and Babies Home
A year ago we had received several new born babies into our care, one year on they are now all mobile and our house parents are kept very active in running around after them! One big miracle is Nairuba, who struggled for life after being born. This on account of neonatal tetanus contracted after being delivered in a dirty hut. Her mother did not survive the ordeal of giving birth to her and Salem will care for Nairuba until she is strong enough to join her relatives in the village. Up to 40 children and 10 babies are given loving care and support at any one time, yet funds received are not sufficient to meet all costs. Your help is still needed to improve this situation and to bring our sanitary and drainage arrangements up to standard. With your help, we will continue with these improvements during 2008.
Salem continues to do a fantastic job despite the lack of funding and other major resources. Throughout 2008, RJW continues to support the work they do. To find out how you can get involved visit the website.
