Two Boys and their Dreams
By George | Partner in Africa
![]()
Meet Eric and Max, two very hard-working boys. They are being raised by their mother, a single parent. They all live together in a single room, in addition to their younger sister. Mom has no stable job and depends on casual jobs that crop up every now and then.
Both boys have active willingness to study, but it's difficult at times when they have not eaten. They both admit that they go to school at times very hungry, making it hard to concentrate. Yet they remain ambitious and hopeful for a better tomorrow. Eric has dreams to become a doctor, making him worker harder so he can one day support his mother. Max sees acting in his future, something I could see since he was enthusiastic during his interaction with me at home. I encouraged both boys to continue working towards their dreams.
Mom sends her sincere gratitude to our donors helping with Eric and Max's school fees, reducing her burden. Everyone here at the American Foundation for Children with AIDS, and our partners in Africa, thank you for your continued support of this important project. If you would like to learn even more about this project and others, please contact Tanya Weaver at tweaver@AFCAids.org.

Alec is Healthy and Active in School
By Michelle Miller | Finance Director
![]()
Alec is 11 years old and lives with his aunt. His mother declined her responsibilities and left the country. Alec has a twin brother who is HIV- negative. He was first tested in 2011. The mother started treatment but the child didn’t and this is when she left. Alec became very sick and his aunt decided to care for him so that he could start medication. Unfortunately, due to poor nursing by the aunt to the child during his bad state, the aunt was also infected and both are on treatment.
Your support of this project has greatly changed the life of this child as his school fees have been paid. Alec is doing well and is very active in what he does. One can see the great improvement compared to his previous state. He is currently active in the support groups and has impeccable adherence levels. Alec is now in class 3 and he has been scoring good marks and conveys good morals. He is good in co-curriculum activities. His aunt extends her gratitude to the AFCA for the support which has been life-changing for Alec and so many other children.
The team here at the American Foundation for Children with AIDS thanks you for supporting this project and the work we do for the children in Africa. If you would like to learn even more about what we do or how you can meet some of the children you have helped, please contact Tanya Weaver at tweaver@AFCAids.org.

Hallie is Promoted!
By Michelle Miller | Finance Director
![]()
Hallie just turned 12 and is a bright student. She lives with her mother and three younger siblings. Life has been difficult for their family, battling sickness and poverty. Hallie was attending classes on and off due to the lack of school fees.
Since being accepted into the school fee program, Hallie has been able to attend classes more regularly and her grades are improving. She has even been promoted to the next level. A bright smile now appears on her face and she feels hopeful of a good future. You have given this to Hallie because of your generosity.
The team here at the American Foundation for Children with AIDS thanks you for supporting this project and the work we do for the children in Africa. As you start to make decisions regarding your end of year giving, please keep us in mind so we can continue our good work into 2019 and beyond. We wish you a new year full of many blessings and as much hope as you have shared with us.
