VICDK Vision

Our primary goal is to empower deprived communities by supporting, guiding and instructing local people in establishing strong groups for social security. We are given the right to life when we are born and from that day we have the born given right to survive. However in many places around Africa societies exist without the basic capacity to survive and have been forced into an impossible situation of prolific hardship and low chance of survival. Where these places are we go. Where people are disappearing, where people die of hunger, where babies are born with aids, where girls are killed or raped…we go there. We establish our presence and we deploy our teams comprised of technicians, health nutritionists, campaigners, doctors, teachers, builders, cooks with others and more. We believe strongly in educating awareness about communities’ different cultures’, practices’ and beliefs’ by promoting such ideas as solidarity, peace, justice, integrity and self-help. We help these people work together. Bonds between split fractions grow and peoples’ knowledge expands. When the needs of every man, woman and child is met we will have achieved our goal and the social structures built will continue to develop.
