Along with the ART treatment, healthy food and supplements are also equally important for HIV-infected people.
The Covid 19 pandemic and the financial difficulties it brought along have strongly impacted the HIV-infected children and their families. They have faced a variety of challenges, including loss of earnings and difficulties in feeding their families. With the fear of the increase in the cases among children, HIV-infected children are at an increased risk of infection during this pandemic.
Through PRIDE India emergency support, 26 children were provided with supplementary nutrition to ensure health security for the HIV-infected children and thus helping them to build their nutritional gaps. The children were very happy to receive these kits and were extremely grateful along with their parents and guardians for the support received during this time when help is needed the most.
We sincerely thank all the donors and well-wishers for helping us to scale up HIV care and support in these moments of crisis.
There are many orphaned HIV children who need support. Request your support to the cause of bringing smiles in their lives…..
