Every person as they near the end of their life deserves to be taken care of, loved, and treated with respect.
His Heart For Africa sees the need to care for these elderly, who have poured so much of themselves into others around them for so long. These beautiful souls often have no one to look after or care for them. There is no hospice, no nursing home to move in to. If you don't have someone to look after you, you will be left to lay where you are and die.
Every month, we pack rice, beans, sugar, salt, soap, and other basic necessities and deliver it to these elderly. We long for them to know that they are deeply loved and not forgotten.
We have elderly in our program that go to Kamu Medical Centre every month because they are on lifesaving medication. We have elderly with diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, and other medical conditions. Dr. Charles highly recommended that we hire a physical therapist to help the elderly move a bit better, so that's exactly what we did! We found a wonderful guy named Sylivester who is now working with some of our elderly once a week. Each session is a minimum of an hour. Since he has started working with them, they have drastically improved! We love seeing how much better the elderly are feeling because of this!
