the village of hope seeks to help children infected or affected by hiv, aids and tb in two different ways: we have a 9 bed children's unit to support those infected by hiv and aids and we also run a community-based sports and lifeskills outreach in the informal settlements and squatter camps each afternoon.

this blog has been set up to allow the key members of the team at the village of hope to share their thoughts, photos and experiences as we work in the community of grabouw in south africa

2 year old birthdays!


birthday boy with his balloon

having been open for nearly 3 years and having an intake criteria of children aged 0-7 years we would obviously have a lot of birthdays, however the one that we seem to celebrate more than any other is a child's second birthday....this week we have held another party this time for one of our most recent admissions a little boy who is placed with us whilst we stabilized him on this TB and ARV medication.

he is another of our successes as he will be placed back out with his mom next weekend. it has been wonderful to see his development and to be able to provide him with a fun filled party will have been a great send off!
