What projects has the Jolica Foundation been involved with?
The Jolica Foundation is currently working with Mennonite Economic Development Associates in a project in Afghanistan which supports women there to plant “kitchen gardens”. In these gardens they grow food for their family and extra to sell in the local markets. The income they earn through these sales help them to take care of their families, restoring stability in this war-ravaged country. We recently celebrated the completion of a project in Tanzania which combatted the spread of malaria by distributing insecticide treated mosquito nets to pregnant women.
