Helping children in Lesotho feel safe, seen, and supported so they can live without fear of the future. In this mountainous country, 50% of the children are orphaned and/or vulnerable. Much of this is due to HIV and AIDS, as Lesotho has the third highest HIV infection rate in the world at 23.3%. That’s nearly one in four people. Despite these grim numbers, we believe Lesotho’s future lies in the h
ands of her children. And we believe that future is bright! We focus on three strategies: Protect and nurture children. Preserve and strengthen families. Mobilize communities to do the same. We partner with local community groups, the Lesotho Ministry of Social Development, the Child and Gender Protection Unit, and other stakeholders to minister to the needs of the most vulnerable children. Join us as we act now, equipping and empowering communities to raise the next generation, a generation rising above the challenges of this beautiful country!
