Welcome to the epicenter of the fight to save lives and souls. Durban, South Africa. At stake are the lives of millions of children — an entire generation of South Africans. It is estimated that by the year 2015, South Africa will be home to three million or more AIDS orphans.
They are children like our very own. Kids, who still have the ability to escape the raging AIDS epidemic and help lead the fight against the devastating wave of poverty and death, but only with the help of someone who cares. But there is little time and few who are willing to give them this chance. You Can Be Their Key.
• In the country with the highest HIV positive population.
• In the province that has the most HIV positive patients in South Africa
• In the city that is home to the highest concentration of HIV positive people.
Jesus Christ is the key
At the heart of Key of Hope's visiion are during-school and after-school programs, revolving around music and singing. Academic tutoring, sports, art and practical skills will be all offered as well as a formal choir, providing the platform for long-term mentoring relationships and the opportunity to introduce the Light and Love of Jesus into their lives.
Education is a key
Key of Hope has formed partnerships with primary schools in the poorest areas of Durban, South Africa. Because of the AIDS epidemic, these schools often lack books, desks, even running water. Cooperating with these schools to provide much-needed resources essential to creating a suitable learning environment, our strategy helps create a pathway to education as well as an escape from the grip of AIDS — through music.
