Our new foundation in the US
 
 

Kasisi Hope Foundation, founded by siblings Grant Snyder and Tracy Snyder Kane, is dedicated to supporting specialized medical services for children at Kasisi Children's Home in Zambia. Our goal is to enrich the lives of up to 250 children by providing essential medical care that is not available locally.

Grant found Kasisi while on his one of many photo Safari trips in Africa and after his visit that was his last Safari. He visits Kasisi frequently.

Knit and Natter Bangor ladies are coming to Kasisi
About 15 years ago, a charity called Action Mental Health approached Libraries Northern Ireland about starting Knit and Natter groups to help adults of all ages come together, learn a skill and make friends. Knitting was chosen as a relaxing, mindful activity. The groups have been successful and have helped people who are lonely, newly bereaved, or just arrived in the town, knowing no-one and wanting to make friends.
 

The COVID lockdown made more people look for something to do and word spread of the knitting the Bangor ladies were doing for Zambia, through neighbours and friends, and soon a large number of knitters were producing beautiful baby clothes, mainly for premature babies at the start, but now for all infant ages, also little teddies and sourcing baby grows from sales and charity shops. Several Zambian groups have already benefited from their dedication and generosity. The photos they get from the recipients, really encourage knitters to know they're making a real difference to the babies. They are now excited to extend their help to Kasisi Children's Home.
