Hello Supporters, Fundraisers & Friends of Action Change!
We wanted to send you a quick, heartfelt note to show you exactly how your generosity is transforming lives here at our safe house. For children who have experienced profound trauma, we don’t just offer a place to sleep—we’ve created a specialized home where healing can finally begin, right alongside their education in our on-site school. This incredible, holistic approach to recovery is possible because it’s 100% funded by you!
Imagine the pure, quiet joy in a child’s eyes when they meet our therapy horses, or the breakthrough moments a young person experiences with a dedicated play therapist or child trauma counselor. Because specialized support is non-existent from government services here in Zimbabwe, your donations have allowed us to bring these professionals straight to the children, accelerating their healing process. We’re already seeing wonderful early results and engagement, proving that these unique therapies—which include horse therapy, play therapy, and trauma counseling—are truly life-changing. We’re working hard to ensure we can keep funding these critical programs for every child who needs them.
We also have a monumental piece of news to share from our Documentation Drive! You know that for too many children, especially girls, the simple lack of a birth certificate denies them access to education, healthcare, and future independence. It's a fundamental injustice. Well, thanks to your dedicated support, we are proud to announce that we have registered just over 4,000 children to date! Four thousand children now officially have their own identity, opening doors that were previously bolted shut. It costs us just $15.50 per child to cover the transport and chaperone needed for those vital trips to the city to secure their documents. Every donation of this is literally a child’s future being handed back to them.
Your contributions don't just solve problems; they create futures. You are giving these children the chance not just to survive, but to heal, learn, and claim the future that is rightfully theirs. Thank you, truly, for being part of the solution.
Thank you for walking this journey with us!
