‘Sifahamu watoto sifahamu kesho – Protect the children, protect the future’ 2024 – Project supported with funds from the Eight per Thousand of the Waldensian Church

The project officially started on the 1st of July 2024, and will finish on the 30th of June 2025. Its purpose is to provide accommodation, health and educational assistance to a group of 69 boys and girls from the Children of the Noon family village who are HIV-positive since birth, with specific reference to

  • Food
  • Medical treatment and laboratory examinations
  • Primary school attendance and related school materials

AINA Onlus is committed to guaranteeing at least 5 meals a day to each resident, which is fundamental for the sustenance of a child with a deficient immune system. An essential requirement for the health of the resident children is medical treatment related to the onset of HIV-induced illnesses and the CD4 count, which measures the immune response to infections.

Education is provided by the school of ‘A.I.N.A. Paolo’s Academy’ , situated within the family village, recognised by the Ministry of Public Education, a government sect dedicated to ensuring excellent education.

The project is supported with the funds from the Eight per Thousand of the Waldensian Church.
