Mission Statement:
To provide a channel for relief and support to flow from Canada
to the impoverished people and victims of AIDS in Africa, in the name of Christ.
The Chemwa Project is a Christ centred community for children who have been orphaned and others who have been impoverished by the AIDS pandemic. Chemwa has a number of development programs underway that will build a more self-sufficient economy for the people of the region.
The vocational program is now in the planning stages and will offer sponsored children opportunity for practical training courses in several areas. A short list of training courses has been identified to provide greater impact to the economic activity in this area. Courses include: Agriculture and Small Business; Construction - Carpentry; Masonry; Joinery; Fashion Design - Seamstress; Information & Communication Technology
These programs will ensure a greater success for trainees entering the employment market after graduation. Programs will involve both practical workshops and classroom theory lessons. Facilities will need to be in place before these programs can be implemented.
Anchor Academy is working with Relief and Support Programmes (Kenya) to develop educational
programs for the people of Chemwa. Current plans include a shipment of educational
programs - scheduled for March 2012.
