“A tragedy of unprece­dented pro­por­tions is unfold­ing in Africa. AIDS today in Africa is claim­ing more lives than the sum total of all wars, famines and floods and the rav­ages of such deadly dis­eases as malaria. – Nel­son Man­dela-

AIDS. Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syn­drome. For most of us AIDS is some­thing that affects the lives of oth­ers, a pol­icy deci­sion made by gov­ern­ment offi­cials. But for mil­lions of peo­ple in Africa, AIDS is an inte­gral part of their life. AIDS has taken away their sons and daugh­ters. It has deprived them of moth­ers and fathers. AIDS has forced them to strug­gle to find the basic neces­si­ties of life while the dis­ease extin­guishes the lives of the ones they love. AIDS is real and it is a threat to their future.

  • Three-fourths of all AIDS related deaths occur in Africa. 38% of all AIDS in 2007 occurred in South­ern Africa. (Report on the Global AIDS Epi­demic 2008, August 2008)
  • 35% of all HIV infec­tions occurred in South­ern Africa (Report on the Global AIDS Epi­demic 2008, August 2008)
  • 5,700,000 South Africans are liv­ing with HIV (UNAIDS 2008 Report)
  • 5,400,000 of infected South Africans are age 15 or older (UNAIDS 2008 Report)
  • 59% of all HIV pos­i­tive South African adults are women (UNAIDS 2008 Report)

Cur­rent life expectancy at birth of a South African child is 51 years of age. (UNAIDS 2008 Report) As this gen­er­a­tion of adults suc­cumbs to AIDS, they leave behind those who are least able to care for them­selves. And that’s why we exist, to make sure that these chil­dren will receive the best pos­si­ble devel­op­ment.
