ARVs (antiretrovirals) for children dying from AIDS
Under 13 year olds in rural areas have been effectively excluded from the Global Fund roll out of ARVs in central Africa; our program fills this gap and we treat them with these life-saving medicines in our holistic approach - and that is why this very bright child is alive today.
A donation of $540 will enable us to treat another child for 12 months.
The Children's mobile clinic
In the villages of central Africa children have no access to medical care. They suffer and die unneccessarily, often from diseases that are easily and cheaply treatable if the diagnostic skills and medicine are in place. We treat over 30,000 sick children every year.
A donation of $250 will enable us to treat 100 children.
Mosquito nets
The most cost-effective defence against malaria, still Africa's biggest killer with over 36% of all deaths are attributed to it. On average three children will sleep under one large net.
A donation of $25 will protect 18 children, $135 will protect all the children in a typical village.
Supporting the AIDS orphans
The HIV/AIDS pandemic is tragic. Many of these children were left alone without even a blanket to sleep on. Our program provides the basic essentials of life, giving these young lives the opportunity to reach adulthood.
A donation of $10 will enable us to support another child for one month.
