PARTNER PROFILE
HOPE worldwide is an international non-profit, faithbased organisation. Since 1991, HOPE worldwide Africa has been involved in community-based HIV/AIDS care, support and prevention efforts.
The needs of orphaned and vulnerable children (OVC) are tremendous. In an effort to mitigate the situation, HOPE worldwide has developed a model for mobilising communities to develop coping mechanisms and safety nets in order to improve the well-being and protection of OVC. This is done through developing and supporting Child Support Groups, Child Care Forums, Kids Clubs, and running Kids Camps. Support Groups function in schools, faith organisations and in the wider community. HOPE worldwide assist, train and mentor other NGOs and community groups, to replicate the support services in new sites.
