World AIDS Day

The community of Ingwavuma marked World Aids Day by coming together. Staff of Orphan Care, school children, members of HIV support groups and other passer-bys marched together from the Orphan Care offices to the town centre where they met up with another 100 children, teachers and community members. The group formed into the shape of an AIDS ribbon around the shopping centre. They lit candles and remembered those who are infected and affected by HIV.

There were then talks and entertainment by various government departments, schools and NGOs. Refreshments were donated by Ingwavuma Spar, Sasko and T-Junction Cash and Carry. We thank all the people and companies who contributed to making the day a success!
