On the border that separates South Africa from Sawziland is the community of Bulembu. Once a thriving mining town, Bulembu was abandoned in 2000 along with its hospital and 1200 homes. Kevin Ward, director of Teen Challenge Swaziland, purchased the town and has a grand vision: To renovate as many homes as necessary to house 2,000 children orphaned by the AIDS pandemic of Swaziland, teach AIDS awareness, and have a self-sustaining community through the start-up of various cottage industry initiatives.

Help change your world and theirs! It's a week of service and refreshment for ladies. You've seen Jamaica's beautiful beaches and tourist destinations featured in television commercials. But behind the scenes of the city are communities struggling like never before. 69.2% of people living in Jamaica make their living from service industries like hotels. In the world's new economy, fewer people are vacationing, and so unemployment is rising. With the rise of unemployment come the side effects.

Haiti is a small country or 8 million people located about 800 miles southeast of Miami. Haiti shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic. The city of Port de Paix is located on the northern coast of Haiti, about a 40 minute commuter plane ride from the capital of Port au Prince. Haiti is an amazing place. It is the poorest country in the western hemisphere and yet very rich in opportunity. Even though the people of Haiti are resilient and hardworking, few can find jobs. Poverty hangs over Haiti like thick smog blocking even the smallest rays of hope for so many.
