Form 990, Part III, Line 2: New ServicesIn March 2017, the CareNow Foundation's board of directors approved a new partnership with Rwanda Children located in Ntarama, South of Kigali, Rwanda. This is the first year that we supported this clinic in Rwanda. In May 2017, two members of the board, Edward and Wendy Bjurstrom, visited this clinic. We also contributed support to this clinic.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Village of Hope, Uganda: On March 25, 2013 the Board of CareNow Foundation voted to begin supporting the medical clinic at the Village of Hope in Uganda. This Village is a refuge of peace and hope for children who have been rescued from the "Lord's Resistance Army" in Northern Uganda. CareNow Foundation has joined in the fight to rehabilitate these children who were abducted, abused and orphaned by this terrorist organization. At the Village of Hope, they receive healthcare, counseling, skills training, and most importantly love. CareNow Foundation is committed to assisting the effort to bring wholeness and restoration to these children as they enter adulthood, and create a new future for themselves, their families and their country. This clinic provides care to approximately 5,420 patients per year. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Malawi Passion Center Community Caregivers: The Community Health Network (CHN) in the nation of Malawi is based at the Passion Center for Children near the city of Zomba and offers new life and hope to AIDS orphans and child-led households. Malawi Passion Center through CHN serves these disadvantaged children and their communities often providing the only healthcare available to 137 villages in the area! This clinic provides care to approximately 2,100 patients per year. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 6: Giving Children Hope: Giving Children Hope serves vulnerable children and families across the street and around the world. One way we do that this is accomplished is by the gathering and redistribution of medical supplies and equipment to other non-profit partners, clinics, or hospitals locally and internationally. Thanks to a family of donors, Giving Children Hope is able to respond quickly and efficiently when a natural disaster strikes or help plan projects based on a great need in a developing country. In recent years, Giving Children Hope has sent containers to support those who survived Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, Hurricane Katrine in the United States, and Syrian refugees in Lebanon and Jordan. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 7: Rwanda Children: In March 2017 CareNow Foundation's board of directors approved a new partnership with Rwanda Children located in Ntarama, South of Kigali, Rwanda. This village was started in 2013 and has expanded into the Hunter Hanner Community of Hope with additional facilities to serve the surrounding community. A recent addition is a new health center which provides healthcare professionals from Rwanda and other countries the opportunity to minister to the sick - especially to children who have nowhere else to turn. Rwanda Children exists to provide housing, food, family, and hope to at-risk Rwandan children in the name of Jesus. With over 3,450 children currently receiving access to medical care through our insurance sponsorship, we seek to ensure thousands more at-risk children across Rwanda possess the medical insurance they need to live healthy, happy lives. The development of our own local clinic is a natural next step to serve the children in our village as well as the surrounding community. Rwanda Children also focuses on family training with emphasis on personal hygiene, nutrition, and practical day-to-day needs with trust and reliance upon God's healing and love.
