Supportive Hands

Supportive Hands

Providing emergency relief and empowering widows, NDS victims, and GBV survivors through food distribution, skills training, and community support. This program ensures the most vulnerable families have access to food, basic necessities, and pathways to self-sufficiency.

The Supportive Hands program focuses on the most vulnerable members of our communities - widows, orphans, Nodding Disease Syndrome (NDS) victims and their caregivers, GBV survivors, and families facing emergency situations.

In Omoro District, NDS has devastated many families. Victims require constant care, and caregivers—often mothers—sacrifice everything to support their children. Our program provides food aid and support to these families.

We also support GBV victims through emergency relief and connecting them to legal and medical services, while empowering widows with skills training to build independent livelihoods.

Our comprehensive support includes:

  • Emergency food distribution to vulnerable families
  • Support for NDS victims and their caregivers
  • GBV victim support and referral services
  • Skills training for widows and vulnerable women
  • Community support group formation
  • Basic necessities during crises

What We Offer

  • Emergency food packages for vulnerable families
  • Support for NDS victims and caregivers
  • GBV survivor support and referral services
  • Widow empowerment and skills training
  • Community support group formation
