Helping Teens Manage Difficult Situations

Country: Zimbabwe

Topics: Youth, HIV/AIDS

Almost one in three children in Zimbabwe are orphans, usually because one or both parents died of HIV/AIDs. Mercy Corps and financial institution Micro King have created a fund to provide direct support to local efforts to assist orphans and vulnerable children. The Child at Heart programme is a recipient of a grant from the fund.
