D Day for our March Theme

Ensuring and Maintaining a healthy Environment helps us to understand that issues of nature, climate and weather conditions are important to ensure that the human race is preserved and well catered for. 

Did you know that 5th of June is World Environment Day?

The United Nations (UN) designates specific days as occasions to mark particular events in order to promote, through awareness and action, the objectives of the Organisation. 

Kindly engage with us via our X platform, Facebook and other platforms for a broader discussion and need to address the issue of human population.

We in TLF we care about the environment in its different dimensions. We advocate for everyone to be involved in that concerns the environment.

So today 5th of March we have set it aside as our D Day for our theme for the month.

While sharing our TLF items sourced from within and from donations, we try as much as possible not to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of those in need, in comparison with what we have. In an occasion where we visited a public secondary school nearest to our temporary TLF Centre, the principal remarked that we didn't come with cartons of exercise books and cups of biros, but a few dozens! We reminded her of 5 loaves and 2 fish! We can't do it all. We can only give what we have. We do what we can and pray God sends other NGOs, individuals and even the government themselves at any level.

Let us not just be aware that we must take care of our environment, but let us actively be involved in conserving our flora and fauna as well as safeguarding our climate all around the world.

TLF 💚

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
