The global threat of AIDS is particularly prevalent in Africa. Ethiopia is one of the most highly AIDS affected countries in the world, as well as one of the poorest - a devastating combination.

Also deeply affected by AIDS are the children who are orphaned because of it. Many children are born with HIV, or have lost their parents to the disease.

HOPE is working with many women and children affected by HIV/AIDS. By empowering the poor to break out of poverty, they have a chance at a life that is safe and secure.

HOPE International has been working in the Derashe Special Woreda (administrative district) of Southern Ethiopia for 10 years.
