Defend the poor and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and needy – Psalm 82:3
An estimated 3.7 million orphans in South Africa – and almost half of these children have lost their parents to HIV and AIDS-related diseases. 150,000 children are believed to be living in child-headed households in the Province of Kwa-Zulu Natal alone.
Our approach is three-phased:
Survive. Thrive. Suceed.
We are able to achieve this through our Orphans and Vulnerable Children’s initiatives which includes the following programmes:
