MAURITIUS and MADAGASCAR 2017.
Thanks for taking a moment to get to know what we are passionate about…
Serving need in the world around us has always been part of the heartbeat of our family and our next adventure is serving in Mauritius and Madagascar for 2017. In these places we will be doing community and charity based work amongst people less fortunate than us.
What will we be doing?
Our work in Mauritius for 2017 will involve researching the viability of a multi-modality health clinic that may be established in the future. Such a clinic may, in the future, host visiting volunteer therapists from around the world who wish to serve and eventually commence training for Mauritian nationals in Myotherapy. In Madagascar close friends have commenced an organisation called Les Pecheurs (French for ‘The Fisherman’). This young organisation has already trained hundreds of individuals in micro business skills in order to help them lift themselves out of the poverty cycle.
Give a man a fish and feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime.
Les Pecheurs is called ‘The Fisherman’ because it is based on the principle of teaching a man to fish and feeding him for a lifetime. This charity has also built a medical clinic just this year, serving one of the villages regional to the capital. We intend to use Mauritius as a base and travel the one-hour flight across to Madagascar to serve in Madagascar as we are able.
How did this come about?
My grandfather worked in Mauritius some 40 years ago. In 2015 I was invited by locals from Mauritius to visit the work that my grandfather had commenced.
I just knew we had to invest ourselves in these nations for a season.
Being in Mauritius gave us opportunity to visit Les Pecheurs in the neighbouring country of Madagascar and see the work commenced by a Geelong businessman and good friend. Whilst we were there I just knew that we were meant to invest ourselves for a season into these nations.
