Fingerprints Across Africa

​Due to poverty, lack of education, no job skills, and prevalence of diseases including tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS, the widows and orphans in Africa are often very vulnerable to abuse, neglect, malnutrition, trafficking, and for girls as young as age 9 being sold as child brides.  Fingerprints Across Africa is committed to partnering with local initiatives and churches in holistically meeting these needs by providing the needed training, skills development, and education along with spiritual care for widows and orphans to develop self-sustainable micro-enterprises in which they can provide hope and a future for themselves. 
​Sustainable initiatives include drop in day care centers for orphaned preschoolers, skills training for teen orphans and widows, and orphan family homes for high risk vulnerable orphans.  Furthermore, we provide empowerment  training in micro-enterprises and using the Village Savings and Loan concepts.  Check out the Projects page for more information, and join us in making a lasting impression on the lives we touch!

​Virtual Safari Party with a Purpose:
"Zimbabwe's Children ~ Bridge for Tomorrow"
​Nov 24 - Dec 1

The Bridge School is complete thanks to our wonderful partners! The school currently has 58 students ranging from ages 6 -13. This school provides the introductory schooling for all these children. Many of them are orphans, but all are vulnerable. Some have been rescued from sex trafficking, some from other very abusive situations, some are HIV+, and some are disabled. This school provides the only opportunity for these children to receive an education that will give them hope for their future. 
We now need to complete this project! We need to furnish the kitchen so that these children can have one nutritious meal a day (for many of them, their only meal a day), and we need to make this locally self-sustainable -- the key to long-term development. Our goal is to build the structure and provide 800 chickens for their chicken farm (300 broilers/fryers and 500 layers). This will provide the necessary on-going funds to continue to feed the children, provide school supplies, and be able to pay the teachers a monthly wage. We also need to provide some playground equipment, especially for the pre-school children.
