INTRODUCTION TO THE ABOVE COMMUNITIES...
Morning Star Children's Centre is a day care facility for underpriviledged children who are infected with HIV/AIDS. Part of Morning Star's focus lies in assisting with income-generating projects for the local community. One that has become successful and reaped benefits for the community is Tshedisanang Women' s Project. Women infected/affected with AIDS join together and design and produce the most exquisite emboidery and bead-work, examples of which include shopping bags, aprons, cushion covers, tableware, t-shirts (for aduts and children), wall-hangings, jewellery and so much more.
Find out more about the latest happenings and events at Morning Star as they strive towards a better life for women and children infected/affected by HIV/AIDS. Their focus, whilst taking care of the day-to-day activities of looking after and treating the children, is also to work towards longer-lasting solutions that will improve the mindset and living conditions of those living in the poorer communities by giving information on HIV/AIDS and equipping them with skills on how to sustain themselves in the future.
