Our Plans:

MANDY PROJECT
We plan to continue to help children with hearing loss to become productive citizens by providing financial grants to the family experiencing hardship due to the child's hearing loss. Financial grants will be given the provider of services for applicant if possible, to help cover the costs of hearing aids, speech therapy, surgery or other related expenses.

YOUTH PROGRAMS
We plan to organize and sponsor educational camps, seminars, and retreats focusing on leadership, strengthening community involvement, developing and enhancing awareness of cultural and social unity specifically for Youth. We plan to participate or organize activities every three months, holing functions and activities in different counties throughout the state.

EMERGENCY RELIEF FUND
We plan to provide financial grants to communities who find themselves in the midst of natural disasters and to causes that create better communities and human conditions.

We plan to promote activities and education specifically for women. We would like to financially assist existing shelters and programs assisting women. Programs and educational material would be designed to assist widows, women recovering from abusive environments, teen mothers, single mothers, and women restructuring their lives after divorce.
