It is possible to empower a critical mass of children and youth in Lesotho to lead positive social change.
Orphaned, vulnerable children and youth in Lesotho need support and guidance to grow up as healthy, productive members of society. AIDS has decimated the working and parental generation, leaving children and youth without role models or positive influencers.
Help Lesotho’s two community leadership centres and village-based programs reach children and youth—and the grandmothers, teachers, and community members who support them—with education and life skills training.
Our approach empowers people in Lesotho to:
…build resilience to positively move forward in life.
…foster self-management and decision making.
…become leaders who take action for the benefit of others.
