CHoiCe focuses on improving the overall wellbeing of rural communities, building resilience and capacity. Interventions are designed to be impactful and sustainable, and CHoiCe is passionate about developing our beneficiaries towards increased capacity and opportunities and improved physical, emotional and psychological health.
