In the face of the world’s highest rate of HIV/AIDS, Young Heroes ensures that the orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) of Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland) are healthy, safe, schooled, and in stable households.

With programs ranging from monthly life-support grants and comprehensive healthcare to educational support, social protection and vocational training, we help OVC grow successfully into self-sufficient, healthy adulthood.

But to help them, we need your help.
