The NGO Matthew Chapter 25 has it name extracted from Matthew 25:45 which reads “Whatsoever you do to the least of my brethren you do to me”. This statement is the pivot for the establishment of the NGO in 1998 at Akwatia and incorporated in 2005 for the legal commencement of its business. The key merit of this NGO is to provide care and support for People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIVs) and Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs). Though the NGO is a branch of the Clinical Pastoral Education, C.P.E, it is under the auspices of the Catholic Diocese of Koforidua.
About us
Who we are
“Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers and sisters you do unto me – Matthew 25 : 40.”
Our Achievement
Progressively, our clients no longer self – brand themselves as AIDS patients due to serious counseling, ART and the compassionate care and support they receive from the House.
They have a rocketed level of confidence to which going public to talk about their status is normal but this would have been a vacuum without the House. It is not surprising to write that though most of the clients joined the House very sick and skinny, they now look very health reflecting an improvement in their health status. All financial and technical preparations have been made certain for the commissioning of the Hospice long dreamt of.
It is not out of course to say that as the House is growing with its activities and with its prospect financial support though sometimes uncertain, it can give hope to PLHIVs who pass through its doorways.
The House is able to organize pre-Valentine program to educate people who are on the fringes of our society such as house helps, apprentices and similar others to create the awareness of the real connotation of Valentine Day to which HIV/ AIDS education is not exceptional.
Workshops on reproductive health for students in senior high schools, vocational schools and even the tertiary tagged as Youth Alive Program is organized by the House which helps the partakers know more about their health status prior to their body and environment.
MISSION
