World Vision is a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to working with children, families and their communities world-wide to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and injustice.
The King of Lesotho, Africa has declared HIV and AIDS a
“Monster, ravaging my country.”
An entire generation is being devoured. Over 100,000 Lesotho children have been orphaned. It’s estimated that 20% of Lesotho’s children will be orphaned within three years.
The time to act is now.
Why Lesotho?
In Lesotho, Africa we found a nation of widows and orphans - with an HIV and AIDS infection at 23.5% When you look at the entire continent of Africa with a desire to help, it can be overwhelming. But by focusing our efforts on one community, Lesotho and the village of Sekameng, the task is achievable. We can’t change the world, but we can change someone’s world today. We can make a difference!
