HIV and Children’s Orphanage, Cochabamba, Bolivia

Although HIV/AIDS has not reached epidemic proportions in Bolivia, the occurrence of HIV is rising in Cochabamba among the population of people aged 15–24. Some AIDS orphans are adopted by grandparents or other extended family-members, but many are left without any support. Our team is going in to help establish this new centre - arriving with big hearts, a toolkit of creative activities to stimulate the little ones and the flexibility to change the best laid plans at the last minute.
