Global Assistance For Women and Children is a non -government organization that assists vul-nerable women and children who have been abused, marginalized, and forgotten worldwide.
Abuse, rape, and the transmission of HIV dehumanize women as old as 82 and children as young as five years. They become outcasts in the community. Traumatized and infected, they wander around villages and towns without proper medical treatment, food, or shelter.
For our first project, we will be focusing on those women and children in the Democratic Republic of Congo
