Harvest Appeal for Orphans
13 July 2010
Sadly there are currently nearly 1.5 million HIV/AIDs orphans in Uganda. The poverty, emotional devastation and other hardships brought about by losing one's parents means that the care and protection of orphans in Uganda, as elsewhere in Africa, is of paramount importance.
In the Buliisa District in Uganda there is a particularly high incidence of HIV/AIDs, leaving a high level of orphans in the area.
We want you to help us! Build Africa is supporting farming/feeding programmes for those families and schools that care for orphans. We are also training all involved in the care of orphans on children's rights and the issues surrounding vulnerable children.
