Charity overview

Activities - how the charity spends its money

People in the eastern Congo (DRC) suffer from violence, instability and poverty - not least as a result of the wars in the region since 1998. The local Quakers work to rebuild their communities, providing medical care, trauma counselling, income generating opportunities and other initiatives to benefit all religious and ethnic groups.
