Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As a volunteer I have visited Zambia three times in the past twelve months to help with the work of Hope Worldwide Zambia as they care for widows and orphans in the poorest areas of Lusaka. Each time I visited the women's support group at Mtundere they sang to me. Their day to day life is characterised by poverty, pain, hardship and loss. Many live with HIV/AIDS........yet they sing! I was moved and I believe you will be moved too as you listen to them. With the generous help of many, we have been able to record some of their singing. 

Please donate £10 to help these women help themselves. All donations will go directly to them. Leave your postal address as you donate and I will send you the CD Chikondi Widow's Voices post free.    (If you like it please tell others)  Thank you.  John.
