Building a University in Angola

When Angola’s 27-year-long Civil War ended in 2002, half a million people had been killed and 1/3 of Angola’s population was internally displaced.

Guerra Freitas survived the war. He now lives in Chicago.  Freitas is the founder the organization Share Circle. It works to help people near Guerra’s hometown of Quito in central Angola. Read more >>

Next month, SHARE will distribute vegetable, corn and beans seeds to 2000 returnee families (Internally Displaced People, and Refugees going back to their areas of origin) in Bie and Kuando Kubango provinces, Angola.This project was made possible by generous grants from the Brethren Service Center and the Global Food Cricis Fund.

A solar powered oven will make it possible to train orphans of war in their late teens and others without livelihoods to bake bread. This will give people a profession, income, and facilitate re-integration into Angolan society. Read more...

SHAREcircle helps save lives, create economic opportunities, restore hope and forge a better tomorrow for the orphans of war, single mothers, widows of war, internally displace people and refugees. SHARE focuses on work in Angola and responds to the needs of the most disadvantaged through its emergency and development programs.

In order to accomplish the work God has entrusted to this organization, SHARE has teamed up with the Church World Service, Church of the Brethren, CARE Angola, and a number of volunteers in the Chicagoland area and beyond to send to Angola canned beef, blankets, school kits and health kits to hospitals, schools, elderly care centers and internally displaced people (IDPs) camps in Angola. With the influx of refugees and IDPs returning to their areas of origin, SHARE will focus on projects that enable the returnees to become self reliant.
