The Challenge: To improve access to healthcare in the RNP+ Aanchal Care Home.
Since KCA (Keep a Child Alive) started funding RNP+ (Rajasthan Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS) in 2010, the organization opened a second orphan care home in Jaipur, the same city where RNP+ offices are based. With KCA's support, RNP+ provides 17 children in this home with shelter, access to education, proper nutrition and medical care. Many of these children have lost their parents to AIDS and are without family members willing or capable to care for them. In addition to creating a home for these most vulnerable children, RNP+ is working to strengthen the capacities of the remaining family members, so that one day the children can return and live with their own extended families. In 2011, KCA will also be working alongside this organization towards de-stigmatizing the communities in which they work to ensure that these children have a positive environment to grow up in.
Please help support the children of the RNP+ Aanchal Care Home. Your support provides healthcare, nutritional support, education, advocacy & sensitization and staff salaries & administrative costs.
