Project O

Organization Description: 

We care for and support AIDS orphans in the Valley of a Thousand Hills, South Africa. On a daily basis we go into the valley on quad bikes and deliver food and clothing to our orphans. Each child has been taken in by extended family and it our aim to support the extended family members that are caring for each of the orphans.

We are also building zero carbon foot print homes for these families so that the children are growing up in secure safe homes.
