Australian born Clare Campbell’s passion to travel the world, for more than 35 years, invariably led her to developing countries. Her experiences there altered her perception of life, and humanity at large. Realizing her own blessings, it became imperative for her to help those far less fortunate. After volunteering in Cambodia in 2015 her passion to help those in need was further ignited. Clare began to understand the plight of the people in the Democratic Republic of Congo, especially women and children. She filled her head and heart with the tragic history of events that led to the current state of the country. Embracing a determination to bring hope and healing to people there, she established a home for orphaned and vulnerable children, two school sponsorship programs, and a sewing project with a talented and dynamic group of disabled seamstresses. Today the journey continues as more needy children find their way to Ishara House. The spaces are expanded, more house mothers are employed and projects aimed at sustaining the growth and ultimate independence of its residents are established. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1606901846347-EJYK02BUL92BMFNEDK9H/Friendly+Water.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1606901262592-XPOOCMVCB5K8K8OGHZON/IMG_9162.JPG Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1606900944562-ZMXG434I1X08KT4EGAEX/Seamstresses_o.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1606854816371-KS49PG74TRXMYBMT5KK7/IMG_1369.jpg Projects https://www.congothreads.org/people daily 0.75 2022-10-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1615571939931-7J4F7HRLPD8GZZKC9IXD/GinnyStern.JPG People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1570851795727-5G4R95T149XQ64ZKD3RE/IMG_1256.JPG People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1615360566374-PU6AE59YKPZSRXVSDA7I/IMG_1260.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1620082130335-X59ZLA4ZN1E7689UWXS3/David+Albert.jpeg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1615362718991-XNBP2PQELJKKZMUGNBJN/IMG_1257.jpg People https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1615360820080-D3QLFLAJZNCGWXTGSJD1/Nicola%2Btrees.jpg People https://www.congothreads.org/make-a-donation daily 0.75 2023-12-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d730cc161989e0551be82c3/1606905413631-FVRZVYFRQMBEGK7W648O/IMG_4585.JPG Make a Donation - Help us help others The hearts and hands of wonderful people in the Congo are reaching out daily to improve the lives of those around them.
