Organizations Filed Purposes:
TO SHARE THE LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST WITH NICARAGUA'S POOREST PEOPLE BY PARTNERING WITH THEM IN HEALTHCARE, EDUCATION, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND HOUSING. THEIR WORK TARGETS REMOTE LOCATIONS WHERE PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING IN DIRT-FLOOR SHACKS; WHERE THERE IS A LACK OF SANITATION, PURE WATER, AND MEDICAL CARE; AND WHERE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES ARE LIMITED.
THE ORGANIZATION BUILDS SIMPLE CONCRETE HOMES WITH A SECURE WOOD OR METAL DOOR AND A CEMENT FLOOR TO PREVENT PARASITES. THESE HOUSES ARE BUILT 25 AT A TIME AND PROVIDED TO RECIPIENT FAMILIES FOR THE COST OF BUILDING SUPPLIES FINANCED WITH NO INTEREST OVER A 10-25 YEAR PERIOD. COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IS ESSENTIAL TO THE RAINBOW NETWORK'S HOUSING MODEL AND REFLECTS THE ORGANIZATION'S ROOTS IN HABITAT FOR HUMANITY. THE PRIDE AND EMPOWERMENT BUILT THROUGH THIS MODEL, TRANSFERS INTO RESPONSIBILITY AND LIFELONG BENEFITS FOR HOMEOWNERS AND THEIR CHILDREN.
THE ORGANIZATIONS'S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOCUSES ON MICRO ENTERPRISE LOANS, AVERAGING ABOUT 280. THE ORGANIZATION HAS ABOUT 3,000 LOANS OUTSTANDING AT ANY GIVEN TIME. IT ORGANIZES SMALL COMMUNITY "BANKS" WITH ABOUT 15 MEMBERS. THE MEMBERS AGREE TO HELP EACH OTHER AND PAY BACK LOANS ON BEHALF OF ANY MEMBER THAT IS UNABLE TO MAKE PAYMENTS. THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES TRAINING TO HELP THE RECIPIENTS OF THEIR LOANS SUCCESSFULLY OPERATE A SMALL BUSINESS.
PROFESSIONAL HEALTHCARE DOES NOT EXIST IN MOST OF THE COMMUNITIES OF THE COMMUNITIES WHERE THE ORGANIZATION OPERATES. THE ORGANIZATION'S GOAL IS TO PROVIDE AT LEAST BASIC MEDICAL SERVICES NEEDED TO RELEIVE PAIN AND SUFFERING PLUS KEEP THE POPULATION HEALTHY AND FREE OF TREATABLE DISEASES. IT OFFERS SUPPORT TO THOSE WITH SPECIAL MEDICAL NEEDS THAT ARE BEYOND BASIC MEDICAL CARE, NOT ONLY ARRANGING FOR THE CARE, BUT ALSO ALL THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SPECIAL TREATMENT AND/OR HOSPITAL NEEDED TO TREAT THE AILMENT, SURGERY OR REHABILITATION.
