What are the Solutions?

Dr. Cary has a systematic working plan with practical answers to these problems. His vision includes re-education on farming and nutrition, to introduce food that will grow in their changing climates. His medical facility will treat and educate against the spread of HIV/AIDS. One of the problems facing who have been infected with HIV/AIDS is the lack of understanding about the way it is transmitted and the way it is treated. Special medications, and preventive methods, such as nets and natural pesticides will be available to combat Malaria and other pest transmitted diseases.

The compound school will teach basic education along with traditional folk music and dance and practical skills to the children. The women will have a facility for handicrafts which will be promoted in the United States to people who support fair trade markets. The opportunity to create an income from their handicrafts gives a real sense of dignity and hope for a sustainable future.

A short antidote is his story about a recent meeting with the local village chief in which he was asking for the blessings for his project. His first step was to learn about the proper etiquette for showing respect to the most powerful man in the village, To his surprise, he learned that until he had a live chicken to offer, there would be no meeting. Chicken in hand, he layed out his vision for the village near Ndola. The meeting was successful, and he came away with an acre of prime farm land in which he is able to build the relief compound.

Dr Cary is sensitive to native traditions and has no agenda for converting or imposing outside ideals or foreign religious principles. His intention is simply to help a forgotten people who are part of our global community. With the help of others like Dr. Cary who have skills, resources and compassion, we are ready to make a reality of Dr. Cary's vision.
