Hands at Work in Africa is a charitable community development organisation based in South Africa. Our vision is the local Christian church in Africa effectively caring for orphans, widows and the dying. We work in vulnerable communities across sub-Saharan Africa where the effects of HIV/AIDS and poverty are at their highest and support structures is scarce or non-existent. We help the local church in those communities to effectively care for the orphans, widows and the dying in their own communities. Our ministry is to all those in need, regardless of race, class or religion.

Without access to food, education and basic health care, children are left extremely vulnerable. Therefore in accordance with international standards of child care, Hands at Work in Africa does not say it “cares” for a child until we are able to provide access to these three areas.

Come and join the Hands family by giving a monthly donation of $15 to enable Hands to meet the needs of orphaned and vulnerable children.

Or you can donate any amount you choose.

Food	Education	Basic Health Care
Lack of a secure food source is a primary cause of vulnerability among Africa’s poorest children, driving many to incredibly dangerous survival practices. Young girls across Africa are daily selling their bodies just to secure a plate of food.	Millions of orphaned and vulnerable children in Africa have no access to even primary education. Orphans are often forced to abandon school for a number of reasons: inadequate funds for school fees, caring for sick family members or younger siblings, emotional distress, and discrimination. But education is the key to unlocking every child’s given potential.	Hands at Work in Africa improves the health of the most vulnerable through a suite of holistic activities delivered in the homes of sick and dying parents and of orphaned and vulnerable children.
