Project Report

By Noel Banda | Project Leader

It is good to See traditional Leaders and faith based Leaders are adapting and taking part in fielding up a Health community by helping addressing TB messeges, / HIV/ AIDS messenges to their focal groups meetings and gatherings. We can not do all that work and messege expartise alone , we are strong because You are there helping addressing the same messeges.

Thus project is movung forward because locally You good people are touched with the situation on ground, really we together need to change our approach on these messeges many people are on silence because they are not getting support from people like You.

We need again as the CBO thank all of You who are taking part in giving Your hard earning income to this initiative, we are feeling. Very Lucky that You are there helping this cause. Again we want ask thise who are doing teasing giving who are giving an amount that even 20 givers their amount can not even add up to $5, we know every giving is a blessing to someone but lets think about what we want our friends to do with our donation. Lets not tease anyone, we always produce projects that people could not do otherwise they just receive they did not have a choice.

Progress and Challenges in TB, HIV, and AIDS

By Noel Banda | Project Leader

‎As part of our ongoing efforts to promote health awareness, we're shining a light on the current state of TB, HIV, and AIDS. Despite progress, these diseases still pose significant challenges globally, including in Malawi.

‎Meet Esther, a TB Survivor from Merinia

‎Esther, a 35-year-old mother of two from Merinia, was diagnosed with TB in 2022. Despite initial fears and stigma, she sought treatment at her local health center and began her journey to recovery.

‎"At first, I was scared and didn't know what to do," Esther shared. "But with the support of my family and healthcare providers, I was able to complete my treatment and regain my health."

‎Esther's story highlights the importance of early detection, treatment, and support in overcoming TB. She's now an advocate for TB awareness in her community, helping others understand the disease and seek help when needed.

‎"We can beat TB together," Esther says. "Don't be afraid to get tested and seek treatment if you're diagnosed."
