A young girl in Tanzania born with albinism, a condition that causes her to lack pigment in her skin, hair, and eyes. This makes her stand out in her community and face rejection, even from her own family. Her life is filled with daily challenges, from impaired eyesight to a shorter life expectancy. In her country, harmful superstitions make people with albinism targets of persecution and violence. But there is hope. By supporting ADRA projects, you can make a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable children like her. Your gift can provide essential health care, school supplies, and livelihood training for families, ensuring their safety and well-being. You can bring hope and protection by donating at ADRA.org. 💚

Today is International Literacy Day! ADRA El Salvador is changing that by creating a literacy program that empowers women and men with the opportunity to learn at any stage of life! 📚 Every day, we witness the incredible determination of people taking advantage of this program.

A total of 48 students proudly received certificates after completing nine farmer market classes within a year. 🎓📚 Many participants shared how ADRA Zimbabwe supported them in establishing an okra-growing project by providing a small irrigation system. They also received an incubator for hatching eggs, which has helped them earn a living and support their families and communities. As the new school year begins, we hope these students inspire you to keep growing and learning wherever you are on your journey! Join us in celebrating these students and show them your support by sending love in the comments! 💚

Meet Tom Pignon, our Country director from ADRA Nepal.

ADRA Laos is supporting farmers by developing business plans and providing materials, thanks to their small grants initiative, so that their production can increase and they have the opportunity to add value to their products. .🌱 After the delivery of materials, the ADRA team will continue to monitor and give technical advice to the farmers to ensure quality and sustainable use, especially those constructing a greenhouse or a garden water system. Thank you, @BMZ and @ADRA Germany, for your ongoing support on this project. This is one of the many initiatives ADRA has to help support farmers thrive in any season!
