$20,000 Goal

South Africa has the world's largest number of people living with HIV. More than 1 in 4 adults in South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal province are living with HIV. 

Many children and adolescents are infected as well, but only 1 in 3 South African children living with HIV are currently thriving on their medications. A child's health is dependent on their caregiver's commitment to their medications and long-term health. However, many caregivers of HIV+ children do not have all the knowledge and resources they need to support these children for a chance at a long and healthy life. 

This is where Our Hope South Africa - Thembalethu comes along. We believe that every child has the right be cushioned with care and support to enjoy a long, full life. With your support, we can share more of the goodness and kindness of God's love with those who need it most.  We have a tremendous opportunity to ensure a long, healthy life for each precious child. 

Give now to help an HIV infected child get access to the treatment and health care and they need and deserve. 

Give now to prevent malnutrition or lack of access to resources for an HIV positive child suffers from, even in these trying days of Covid.

Give now to help the parent/guardian of an HIV positive child face the stigma of the disease and have the skills needed to communicate the truth of their HIV status to their child.

Give now to help the parent/guardian of an HIV positive child access positive parenting skills to provide the best possible care for their child. 

By providing holistic care to each child and their guardians, our trained staff support families of over 110 HIV positive children. But there are more in our area we haven't yet been able to reach. You can make this happen.  Working with the child and their guardian at the household level allows us to identify and address barriers to treatment and care for each individual child. We can provide all the support needed to ensure every vulnerable HIV positive child in our area can have a long, healthy life.
