Program areas at Lahash International
Partner Grants and Sponsorships - Lahash partnered with six East African organizations in 2022. These organizations care for the most vulnerable children in their communities. These children have lost one or both parents and are living in areas with high HIV/AIDS rates and/or living in areas affected by armed conflict. Lahash facilitated sponsorships for 427 children in Tanzania, 17 children in Kenya, 5 children in Uganda and 71 children in Rwanda (total for 520 children). These grants provided school fees, spiritual education, food, shelter, and clothing for the children.
Publication and Media Expenses - Lahash advocates for vulnerable populations that have little or no global exposure to their plight. Our primary vehicle is a yearly magazine that reaches 2700 readers. We maintain two websites and raise awareness by sharing presentations in churches and homes. Our media team also posts hundreds of updates, blog posts, photos, and videos during the year about the issues and ministry in East Africa.
Travel Expenses - Lahash alerts, trains, and facilitates volunteers to our partner locations across East Africa. These volunteers earn about the local problems and solutions in the region as well as provide professional services in the fields of medicine, journalism, Christian education, finances, staff development, photography, and social services. In 2022 Lahash facilitated the trips for 17 travelers.
