AIDS Abandoned Orphans' Foster Moms Plead for Help in Swaziland, Africa
Foster moms will learn how to earn income to provide shelter, food, and medicine for AIDS abandoned children.

Jewelry 4 God receives heartfelt request to train foster moms of AIDS abandoned children in Swaziland.

/24-7PressRelease/ - WASHINGTON, DC, August 03, 2007 - "Swaziland holds the dubious title of leading the largest pandemic known to mankind in modern history, with the highest HIV AIDS percentages in the world," said Kevin Ward, Executive Director of The Lighthouse in Swaziland. "A whole generation is being destroyed. Previous pandemics would wipe out the weak. This one is attacking the strong, the income generating age group. It is leaving the weak and the orphaned to live alone, unprotected and without an income or the ability to procure food; pay for an education, let alone dream of a future with a hope."

He wrote, "It is in this environment that transactional sex has become a reality, needing to provide sex for food. Jewelry 4 God can help empower the youth to be more financially independent and secure in being able to secure their future. Please consider coming to Swaziland and teaching our foster mothers, who are responsible for caring for 8-10 AIDS abandoned orphans. The foster mothers will then teach the children they care for these same skills, when they are old enough to learn, as a potential trade. The products would then be sold through stores in tourist sites in Swaziland."

"We believe that Jewelry 4 God is the ideal solution to this, and are very excited at the prospect of these wonderful ladies being trained in a creative vocational skill that will build self-esteem in them, as they actively contribute towards the running expenses of their homes, in addition to demonstrating to the children the important principle of becoming self-supporting by utilizing the talents and abilities God has placed in each of them. It would be our aim that the mothers would, in turn, train the children in their care, in jewelry making, that they might learn from an early age a vocational skill that will give them a hope and a future."
