Our programmes include work in the following areas: orphanages, HIV/AIDS, environmental conservation, youth empowerment and counseling, disaster preparedness and management, home based care, sustainable agriculture, teaching and training children (including children, street children and other vulnerable children), gender based violence, health care and nutrition.
