Sustainable Livelihoods Project

Sustainability is the key to development. Nurture Africa does not believe in hand-outs. Instead we teach our clients to help themselves. Guardians of the children from our HIV Community and Education Enablement Projects are given training on how to start or develop an income generating activity, for example, selling charcoal or coffee. The guardian is also given a micro finance loan in order to make their family self- sufficient and better able to support the vulnerable or HIV infected child.

Our target for 2012 is to provide income generating activities for 250 guardians of HIV infected and affected children. We will also carry out will making and birth certificate workshops to 2,500 guardians of orphans and vulnerable children.
