Beatrice stuck with baby helpless
SORAK Development Agency set off to support 200widows suffering from HIV and AIDS in Mubende. SORAK is very grateful for we have to date provided impactful support to at least 80 widows (aged 30-56). Some of these are also grand mothers who care for HIV/AIDS orphaned children.
Dear Global Giving donors, your hard earned dollar or pound has brought life, smiles on the face of the would be suffering widows. Nevertheless, since 2015, support from Global giving donations has been trickling at a lower rate than anticipated.
With support from other donors like Positive Action for Children fund SORAK has been able to discover many more women living with HIV and AIDS who have been widowed at early years aged as young as 27 years old!.These are left with babies/orphans to fend for. SORAK is overwhelmed. All the previous support received from Global giving is exhausted. SORAK is even yet to meet 50% of her fundraising goal. If at all we could reach 86% most of these newly discovered HIV positive mothers would have relief. This is because there is urgent need for support as they have to get on along with PMTCT.
Dear Global giving donors, as you have done always to us and to other distressed people on the globe; It is that extra dollar or two that will provide Beatrice meaningful life. She will be able to live positively with HIV and AIDS, with hopes of raising an HIV negative free baby. Kindly support us o reach our 86%target by December 2016 in order to give Beatrice and others in her caliber a meaningful and realistic life.
