Care for Life is a global non-profit organization with a holistic approach to ending poverty in a sustainable way by preserving the family while encouraging and enabling the practice of self-reliance. Care for Life is not a handout or a give-away organization, but one that believes in working with people to help them take charge of their own destiny, realize their full potential, and create a culture of individual effort and responsibility.
The mission of Care for Life is to alleviate suffering, promote self-reliance, and instill hope in Mozambique. Founded in 2000 by Blair and Cindy Packard, Care for Life empowers people to change their lives. Care for Life is a non-profit foundation and a U.S. 501(c)(3) charitable organization. In 2002, Care for Life received non-government organization (NGO) status in Mozambique, which provides increased access and permission to operate within the country. [Source: Care for Life website]
