Sponsors urgently needed for the children orphaned by the AIDS Virus

More sponsors are urgently needed for the children orphaned by the AIDS Virus.

Some of our children miss years of schooling through their tragic circumstances and this leaves them without a glimmer of hope for the future. Other children are orphaned and live with aged grandparents or out of work siblings so school is not an option as there is no money coming into the family.

For instance we have one young girl of 17 who was badly raped at the age of twelve resulting in the birth of a multi disabled child who is now five years of age and is in our crèche. Because of this and the trauma and lack of family this girl has not received any schooling since the age of 12 years.

Nancy is trying to get a school place for this girl so she can resume her education and Rosemary Faupel has offered to sponsor her educationally which is wonderful as this will now be the fifth child that Rosemary sponsors.

We have a family of eight children living with an older sibling in a small shack, there are no other relatives and no money coming into this home as the older girl cannot find work. We are trying to help them and we have another family of children living with a 92 year old grandmother also in need of our help.

So please, if you can, do come forward and sponsor one of our children, it is such a rewarding thing to do knowing you have helped to change a child's life.

Thank you.
