Narok Children's Hope

$30/month = provision of Antiretroviral Therapy for one HIV+ child
While it is estimated that over 120,000 children are currently infected with HIV in Kenya many of these children do not have access to live saving medication.
In fact, the Narok regional district hospital reports that in their region only 1 out of every 200 HIV+ children are currently receiving Antiretroviral Therapy (ART).
Direct Change is partnering with the Christian Partners Development Agency (CPDA) to increase the number of children in the Narok District to receive life saving medication.

The Duk Lost Boys Clinic

Goal: $431,800 – 1st Year Medical Costs
While peace has arrived in southern Sudan, the collapse of the social infrastructure during the long civil war has left most of the region with virtually no health services.
John Dau, the Director of the Direct Change Sudan Project, is from Duk County and started this project with the American Care for Sudan Foundation.
Currently, there is no medical doctor for 75 miles. The clinic whose staff will include a full time doctor, will serve the people of Duk County and the surrounding areas.
Thanks to the generosity of supporters around the world, we have completed our fundraising for building the clinic in Duk Payuel Sudan. Now we need to hire medical staff and send supplies; will you please help us raise the money to make this possible?.

AHOPE: HIV Orphans’ Care & Support Program

$360 = Full support for child in orphanage
Traditionally in Ethiopian culture, the kinship within extended families was strong and orphans were cared for within the family. However, the increasing number of orphans and the deteriorating living standard of the Ethiopian people have created a condition where extended families are unable to provide even the minimal basic care for orphans.
Costs for this program include food, housing and education
