OUR FUND IS 100% of our GOAL on May 16, 2010!!
Shortly after birth Naomi developed Athetoid Cerebral Palsy due to severe  jaundice, resulting in damage to her basal ganglia located in the mid-brain.  She is presently three years old and after many different therapies she can now hold her head up for most of the time, sometimes roll over, and more effectively cough and swallow.


I met Naomi at Cincinnati in May 1, 2010.  A really sweet little girl!
One of the therapies she is using, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), helps those with Cerebral Palsy by bringing extra oxygen to damaged brain cells.  If this treatment is started early and is done frequently, these dormant cells can begin to function and this contributes to significantly improved CP symptoms.


Kids for Cows!  LifeNets started providing cattle for Zambians in 2001. There has always been a strong link between children and the cows. Children in the poorest of all countries are the biggest beneficiaries of the cattle.  Cows provide milk, a much-needed and lacking part of their diet.

We are now expanding the model for our Zambian cattle program to Kenya and Zimbabwe.  We need your help in stocking the original heifers and bulls  MORE
