On the 23rd of December 2009 Aids Orphan was born in response to the world’s biggest forgotten crisis. By the end of the decade the United Nations estimates that there will be some 25 million children who will have lost one or both parents to Aids.
Children orphaned by the virus have not only lost the love and protection of their parents, the vast majority of them are left to struggle alone, many with younger siblings to care for in desperate poverty and with the discrimination and stigma an HIV status brings. Many children are abandoned and often extended family cannot and will not look after them.
At Aids Orphan we believe in helping where we can. Our mission is to reach out and change lives; our ambition is as big as the pandemic itself. As a first step, we are establishing a global community of people who share our drive and determination to do everything we can to help children who have been orphaned by the virus.
We would love you to join us.
