PROVIDING LONG TERM SUPPORT TO FAMILIES TO END HIV TRANSMISSION |
"TTF DONORS CHANGED OUR LIVES. THANKS TO YOU MY ELDEST CHILD IS HEALTHY AND HELPING OTHERS. I AM HEALTHY, AND I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE TWO HIV NEGATIVE CHILDREN" - CHARITY, MOTHER AND PATIENT
During a community outreach the TTF team identified a 15 year old boy called Peter as being HIV+. Peter struggled with his diagnosis, in order to help him he needed family support. TTF counselors went to the family home to engage the family.
Peter's mother, Charity, had been on treatment for a year but without the right information had no idea that Peter could be infected from birth. After providing some family counseling we were able to provide HIV testing for Peters father, and when he tested Positive enrolled the whole family into the TTF Clinic.
Thanks to your donations we have been working with the family for over 6 years, providing them with; individual and group counseling; age tailored support groups for Peter; HIV education; HIV treatment support; and prevention of mother to child transmission support for Charity through two pregnancies.

Today, because of your donations, all of Charity's youngest children are HIV negative. Because of your ongoing support Peter is now a Peer educator and Peer mentor, running adolescent support groups and helping others to understand HIV and how to lead healthy lives. He is a positive role model in the lives of many vulnerable individuals.
This was all possible because of your continued donations, helping us to identify those in need and working to end HIV transmission.
