Help people!
It is an obvious thing to help those needed. Those whom I met in remote
places, far away from any tourist routes or crowds. Especially in
Zimbabwe struck by the highest inflation in the world. It is much easier
to exchange some goods for others, than try to buy them in a half-empty
shop. Some use open-trucks or any other vehicle possible to reach the
neighbouring Zambia. They buy sacks of mealie meal and come back home to
exchange some for greens or nyama.
Ever since I go to Zimbabwe I do take a minimum of my personal things,
my big luggage is mainly loaded with shoes and clothes for my Zim
friends as well as their big families.
Back at home in Poland, together with my friends, I raise money or
organize clothes or food for all those who need them badly.
Perhaps you want to go to Africa…but there is something which stops
you from doing so…you can actually gain African friends right
now…just send some little money to one of the families.
You shall get the most thankful letter and prayers in return.
The situation in Zimbabwe is as bad as never before.
After years of drought now came the floods. The cholera did even worse.
The Mumpande family was not affected, as they live hundreds of km away
in a remote bush. Their son Comedy is amalaria victim, but lives thanks
to rhe medicines we sent. He is growing fast and taking good care of his
little sister.
When you finally meet them one day, you shall understand why they are so
happy. Despite everything. Happy just because they are alive.
And the future? As they say in Africa – Time will tell and God will bless.
