Karibu Anawim wishes to support others navigate The Way of Victory. We cannot be all things to all people, as this is impossible. We support our community by:
· Empowering others to maximise their potential
- Psychological and emotional support
· Releasing financial aid (when we can) to help fund projects based on providing support or building awareness about the facially disfigured community
· Referrals to paid/volunteer work where applicable
We desire to be a 'hub' of information whereby we can refer to other
organisations who might best support people within our community.
If you hear of, know of anyone or any organisation who helps people living with
facial disfigurement/difference, please connect with us and tell us. We need
your help.
