Assisting families in resettling and rebuilding their lives is a wonderful humanitarian initiative aimed at helping them escape poverty, harsh living conditions, violence, and racial persecution. This is our mission, and we rely on your financial support and involvement.

There are many incredible and talented individuals who have faced difficult times in South Africa, and they require our assistance to achieve a dignified new beginning. The best way to support them is by providing a safer and better pathway for families to immigrate and start anew in our ECAHLI community Project (Eco-Community Alternative Housing Lifestyle Initiative) in Paraguay, which will be launching soon.

The ECAHLI community project is groundbreaking in every way, offering limitless opportunities for growth and development. This initiative will create a completely independent (off-grid) self-sustainable community in the beautiful and tranquil Paraguay. Paraguay is a welcoming and stable nation, reminiscent of South Africa 35 to 40 years ago, with a slower pace of life, low crime rates, an organic lifestyle, a stable economy, and no racism. It is a Christian country where family, peace, and friendship are highly valued. Although Paraguay is economically challenged, it is eager for new developments and opportunities, making it an ideal location for our project. The immigration process is straightforward and stress-free, making it the perfect place for a fresh start.

How does your support make a difference?

Through your kindness and support, we aim to help families from South Africa relocate to Paraguay and guide them through the Residency process.
We will offer them a place to stay while we work on developing ECAHLI.
We will also provide job opportunities, training, and support for their integration.
Our goal is to give them a fresh start and a new home in ECAHLI.
Additionally, we will offer counseling and support for PDSD, bereavement, and trauma-related issues.
Develop the ECAHLI community

Now is the moment for us to set aside our differences and come together to heal our shared humanity by supporting those who are less fortunate and live in constant fear. The horrors of farm murders are just the tip of the iceberg; the violence extends beyond farms, with white individuals also facing violent crimes, attacks, and reverse racism through affirmative action. Every life is valuable, and everyone deserves to live in peace, and it is our responsibility to assist.

We must rise and provide people with a better choice. It is our duty to ensure that children have a sustainable future that guarantees equality, safety, peace, and, most importantly, a fresh start.
