Nurses for the Nations Reaches out to India
India is populated by over one billion people, nearly 17% of the worlds total population. Half of India’s people suffer from hunger, while child mortality, HIV/AIDS, maternal deaths and gender disparities that exist culturally are rampant through out all parts of the land. In the Dalit villages or areas where the lower caste system lives (they are called the untouchables), men, women and children are treated as outcasts of society and cannot work, hold meaningful jobs or provide for their families. They are considered the lowest of the low. As a result of this separation from the rest of their society, poverty, sickness and disease, lack of water and poor sanitation is prevalent. Nurses for the Nations is working in the Dalit villages, to test and treat for typhoid and other illnesses, train and educate Dalit women as health agents and bring the word of God and message of His hope and compassion to them. Please join us in serving the Dalit people: men, women and children despised by there own nation by praying for their spiritual and medical needs, joining us in India to serve them at the village level and by financially supporting the work N4N is called to in this area of the world.
