Give a Hand Where It's Needed
Hand in Hand in Africa identifies and assists Southern African entities involved with those infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. Projects receiving support from Hand in Hand in Africa focus on Home Base Care Work and teach abstinence-based education along with facts about the disease and contracting it in order to reduce the incidence of HIV. They may sponsor counselors available for trauma and stigma of HIV/AIDS, meet advocacy needs by interfacing with government. Some projects which we support are involved in orphan care and seeing to the education of HIV/AIDS at risk children - from feeding them, to supplying required school uniforms, to encouraging them and helping with homework or after school care, even to helps such as computer training and other job skills that might reduce the risk of hopelessness - one of the leading causes of AIDS.
Our board members and volunteers travel to Southern Africa regularly, bringing hope as well as gifts and services that help Southern Africans struggling with HIV and AIDS. During these visits we identify new entities which meet our vision and stringent financial accountability requirements. We network with existing partners in the fight against HIV/AIDS. We're careful stewards of our resources, so you can be sure that your support and donations will go as far as possible in saving the lives of men, women, and children in Southern Africa.
