AIDS orphan support programme.
Over four thousand orphaned children have benefitted from our program; it ensures they can attend school, receive medical care and Vocational Training when they reach the age of 17. The secret of the program's cost effectiveness is that it had the full support of the local community, and they made a major input as volunteers.
Over four thousand orphaned children have benefitted from our program; it ensures they can attend school, receive medical care and Vocational Training when they reach the age of 17. The secret of the program's cost effectiveness is that it had the full support of the local community, and they made a major input as volunteers.
This is what the United Nations IRIN (Information website) had to say about our program (October 24th 2002).
"In an innovative project initiated by the World Medical Fund (WMF) and the local community, the orphaned children stay in the village of their birth.
WMF appoint guardians, who benefit by receiving support through food and farm inputs so the child would not be a drain on their limited resources.
WMF also provides the child with clothes, pays for their school fees and uniforms and arranges Saturday meetings for the orphans to get together thus reducing any feelings of isolation".
