Joshe Bose is director of Love Your Neighbour (LYN), Global Care's partner in Bangladesh. In the last three months, not only has LYN faced the coronavirus pandemic and a prolonged lockdown, but their area was also hit by a major cyclone. Joshe is trusting God for the future, and thankful for His provision so far.
When someone commits to long-term support for Global Care, it really is music to our ears. And this couldn’t be more true of singer-songwriter, Rob Halligan.
We're a small charity, but during the current coronavirus pandemic we've fed thousands of hungry people, in ten countries, on four continents, and provided vital hygiene tools for thousands more.
If you live in Africa's largest slum, in a 10x10 shack, amongst thousands of shacks, crammed back to back with no running water, you just don't have the tools to keep yourself safe from the coronavirus.
Water points in Kibera, food parcels in a Mumbai slum, hygiene training in rural Zambia – just a few weeks ago none of these activities were on Global Care’s ‘to-do’ list!
“Are you mad! No one will want to help!” This was what one person told me when they heard that Global Care was launching an appeal to help vulnerable children overseas, affected by the coronavirus crisis. I hope and pray they were wrong.
