-Save mingi children. Drawn From Water is an organization that I've highlighted before that saves children believed to be cursed (mingi) from certain death by decree of their tribe's elders. Once these children - who would be drowned or starved - are discovered, these folks go to work convincing the families & elders not to kill the children. They want them to see that these children are not cursed, that they are instead a blessing. When they are successful, they bring the children to their orphanage, where they are provided with safe shelter, clothes, food, schooling, love-love-love, & Christ. They have sponsorships available, too, or you can just donate generally. This is also a very worthy organization who is not just attempting to save these children from physical death, but also from spiritual death. And their tribes, too! They have a church plant in at least one of the tribes, & are striving to not only eradicate the practice of mingi, but preach Christ crucified to people who are dying in sin, for the glory of His holy name.
