Current World Impact: Seeds, Tools, and Training for Orphans

Kaleo's current World Impact will go to helping children in Africa, learn the necessary skills, and have the necessary tools and supplies to garden their food.

Throughout Africa, the deadly effects of HIV and AIDS have devastated millions of families. Many young children have lost one or both parents to the disease, and they need help to ensure they have food for today and can grow food for the future. Government grants multiply the impact, providing seeds, tools, training, and food to orphans and vulnerable children so they can reach their God-given potential.

Thousands of African farmers suffer from life-threatening illnesses such as HIV and AIDS. When they get sick, their crops often fail because they don't have the strength to cultivate them. Furthermore, the cost of simple medications depletes their meager finances, so they can’t afford to buy seeds, fertilizer, and other supplies. The death of the head of a household can mean malnutrition and hunger for orphaned children.

Across the continent of Africa nearly 30 million people are HIV-positive. In many of these countries, World Vision is actively helping to counter the deadly impact of disease and food shortages by distributing food and providing seeds, tools, and training so families — many of whom care for orphans — can keep their farms going and a steady supply of food on the table.

Through this Impact we will help save lives of orphaned and vulnerable children by providing:

- Hardy vegetable, cereal, and grain seeds

- Tools such as watering cans, hoes, and machetes

- Training to help them grow a good harvest
