Our concern is the welfare of vulnerable and disadvantaged children, especially those whom are HIV-positive. Many of these children face abandonment and social stigmatization, and lack the family support systems to take care of their basic needs.
Since our establishment in 2005 we have been working closely with regional HIV/AIDS clinics in identifying vulnerable children, assessing their needs and assisting them.
Our Mission
To contribute to the effective promotion of a healthy development for vulnerable children in the Ashanti region.
To raise local and global awareness of the lives of vulnerable children in the Ashanti region.
To engage a global community of young people with the lives of vulnerable children, empowering a sense of understanding and hope.
