Their support of Heart for Africa and their mission to work alongside the people of Swaziland to bring hope and care to orphans and vulnerable children.
Specifically:
The Rotary Club of North Fulton is partnering with Heart for Africa to raise money to build a dam on the farm. Though that may not sound exciting at first glance....this dam is necessary to irrigate another 90 acres of land so that crops there can be grown year-round. This is just another exciting step towards making Project Canaan self-sustaining! We are so thankful!

In addition, TOMS shoes has chosen Heart for Africa to be a giving partner in Swaziland! TOMS has a neat "one for one" program in that when you purchase a pair of their shoes, a pair will be given to a child in need. Now, many children in Swaziland will get to experience this wonderful gift! We can't wait to get over there this summer and help hand them out!!!
And last but certainly not least, UPS has donated money to secure fencing around the El Roi Baby's Home, the Long Term Volunteer Housing, and the farm manager's building. This will ensure the safety of the orphans as well as those who work tirelessly on Project Canaan!
We are so excited and thankful to be a small part of what God is doing in Swaziland.
