Story

Nick and Andy are on their way having the adventure of a lifetime driving from Edinburgh to Cape Town in a Land Rover. They are aware that one of the worst afflictions on the African continent is AIDS and felt it would be a good idea to support specific work helping young AIDS victims somewhere on the continent. At the Jacaranda Project, Bulembu, Swaziland, thirty abused girls at risk of HIV / AIDS are cared for, educated and trained by Anglican sisters from OHP in Whitby. There are two houses with Swazi house mothers. A third house is planned. With HIV at around 45% of the population, Jacaranda provides a "safe house." Girls move on to live independently but regard Jacaranda as "home." So please dig deep, sponsor us now and give these children a better chance in life. Thank you for your support. Nick Lonie

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: O H P will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
