Education for AIDS Orphans in Africa
More than 12 million children in sub-Saharan Africa have lost one or both of their parents to AIDS.* 'Teach a Child - Africa' (TaC) supports children who have been orphaned by AIDS to complete their secondary education. We provide bursaries to children in Africa so that they can finish school and develop the skills to fight poverty and reach their potential in life. We have started working with secondary schools and children in Kenya's Nyanza Province to fund their education. Primary schooling is free in Kenya, but children must pay secondary school fees and many are forced to drop out because their carers are too poor to pay. We believe that every child has the right to complete their secondary education regardless of their gender, ethnicity, religion or political affiliation. Together we can help children orphaned by AIDS to finish school and reach their potential. Give a donation today and help to teach a child. * UNAIDS Latest News YouTube
