Day 19. A big step in 2014: The New HIV Day Care Centre

The SLM HIV Day Care was inaugurated this year, at the SLM - Santa Luisa de Marillac School in Manjangue. ALG has been developing an extensive community support programme in SLM since 2011. The new centre offers a fully customized programme to HIV/AIDS infected children, during the day, securing their adequate nutrition and, constant medical assistance. The project aims to relief local poverty and provide a dignified and healthier childhood to seriously ill children. With a capacity for 50 children, it opened with 23 children on its launching year.
The facilities are located in the surroundings of the SLM School, an underprivileged community where our sister-charity UPG Portugal already sponsors 123 of the poorest children. In parallel to the Sponsorship programme, ALG also finances Projects in SLM such as School Meals, After-classes Support, University Scholarships and Family Huts.
This is ALG’s most recent project and for a total budgeted cost of £24’300 (£41 per child a month) in 2014, it requires full dedication to secure an adequate multi-annual financing. Bring this project to the attention of the social responsibility area of your company or spread the word among your most generous friends!
