DISTANT ADOPTION PROJECT    
     
 
HELPING THE ORPHANS
This project of helping the orphans was established by Fr. Gamba at St. Louis Montfort parish after seeing that there were many orphans because of AIDS epidemic. This project started in 1992. Many children had no proper care. Some of these children learn bad behaviours because there is nobody to take care of them.This group started with 10 children. Gradually, the number increased to 1,500. All these children come from St. Louis Montfort parish. This group goes to meet these children in the five centres of the parish once a month.

ASSISTANCE OF THE CHILDREN
These orphans receive different things which are helpful for their mutual upbuilding.

HUMANITY
They receive clothes and beddings
They receive food such as:- maize, biscuits, sweets etc
They receive money to help them for their daily need
They receive many entertaining things such as:- bicycles, idols and toys etc

INTELLECTUAL LIFE
These people learn from St. Monica nursery school. and they receive lunch. This is so to make sure that these children should eat a balanced diet food for good health but also they should not have time to think of their orphanage.
Grown ups are helped with money for school fees and those who are old enough are taught skilled work at Andiamo Campus. They do this so that they should be self-reliant.
For the time being, the project is under Fr. P. Gamba in corraboration with Bro. Maurizio, Mrs. Ethel Banda and the Home Based Care.
These young ones are selected from their villages by volunteers and catechists.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
To help the orphans in villages

To help others to adopt them
To help them to grow while respecting their our culture
