This is a video of one of the mothers of 4 of the children that are part of the Child Hope Zambia sponsorship program. In the video she is telling the group of her HIV positive status. She says she went for an HIV test last year and the results were positive.
Thanks to the support that CHILDHOPE has given her, she now has the energy to do house chores and other community activities. She started with taking septrin before taking ARVs. She says she is very thankful for the food that she has been getting from CHILDHOPE.
She says the mealie-meal, cooking oil, sugar, soya meal and beans she has been receiving from CHILDHOPE have sustained her life. Now that CHILDHOPE has, also, provided her youngest child with the opportunity to attend preschool at the ECCDE centre, her burden has lightened.
She is happy that the sponsorship program will also include the ECCDE children as well. She says her child likes goats and having some would help sustain the child`s future.
Her husband is also HIV positive and bedridden. She is asking for sponsors who can help her care for her 4 children. Since neither she nor her husband can work, the children need help with school supplies, school fees, uniforms, etc.
She says, she would appreciate if any one could help in getting a bed, mattress and beddings. Since her husband is confined to the home and laying down, a bed would be more comfortable for him.
