Home Based Care - Dingaanstat

The Dingaanstat Home Based Care Project helps to alleviate the suffering of AIDS patients and their families. Dedicated community volunteers visit the homes of AIDS patients bringing parcels of food, basic medication, their compassion and the hope of the Gospel. There are 45 volunteers who visit several hundred homes each week.

AIDS continues to be a subject that is not talked about, in spite of the public service announcements on the radio, television and bill boards. The rates of HIV transmission are high, but in Zulu culture these things are not discussed.
