ARVs for child with AIDS
ARVs (antiretrovirals) for children dying from AIDS:
Under 13 year olds in rural areas have been effectively excluded from the Global Fund roll out of ARVs in central Africa; our program fills this gap and we treat them with these life-saving medicines using a holistic approach - and that is why this very bright child is alive today.
A donation of £180 will enable us to treat another child for 12 months.
The Children's mobile clinic:
In the villages of central Africa children have no access to medical care; they suffer and die unneccessarily, most often from diseases that are easily and cheaply treatable if only the diagnostic skills and medicine are in place. We treat over 30,000 sick children every year, saving young lives every day, many like the child pictured here, are close to death when they arrive.
A donation of £25 will enable us to treat 20 children.

Mosquito nets:
The most cost-effective defence against malaria, still Africa's biggest killer with over 36% of all deaths are attributed to it. On average three children will sleep under one large net.
A donation of £15 will protect 18 children, £95 will protect all the children in a typical village.
Mosquito nets Surgery
Mobile Surgical Unit:
A significant percentage of the children we see require surgery; in the past this was barred to them by the real problems of poverty and lack of transport. Our Chief Clinical Oficer is a skilled surgeon and he has come up with the perfect solution, to build a mobile operating theatre, able to work in deep bush.
We have raised the capital funding of £40,000, we now need to raise the annual running costs of £27,000, can you help?
Child with AIDS


PMTCT (Prevention of Mother to Child transmission of HIV):
This must be one of sub-Saharan Africa's most important programmes; its success will determine the future development of the region.  It is too late for this girl, she died of AIDS several years ago but today we can at last do something. These children are the future and it is vital that they can grow up free of the scourge of the HIV virus.
A donation of £750 will enable us to treat an entire group of villages.
Child dying from malaria
HIV/AIDS and Public Health education:
A vital part of our work in the villages is the battle against AIDS and knowledge is the most powerful weapon we have. We also give esential information on hygiene, how to avoid biharzia and nutritional advice.
A donation of £10 will buy an information pack for a village.
