Water sources for villages we are currently working with in Somalia are muddy holes. Animals share the water supply with the people making the water dirty and contaminated. These areas are habitat for mosquitoes that cause malaria outbreaks.

Health: RFA is seeking donations to supply clinics with: medical supplies, medicines, food, equipment and books. Support is needed to establish clinics in areas where health care service is lacking.

Independent Women Program: This program will give grants to women to start a business. Many times we see widows and other women who have lost their only source of income begging in the streets. This program is intended to help these women become independent through training, grants and microloans.

Whether they are producing products made of staw such as floor mats, hats and baskets or running small shops, more women need to be empowered.

General vocational training programs consist of Sewing machine training, mechanical training, Woodworking, journalism and computer training.
