Arnold’s House
A Safe House for Orphans of AIDS
Kilimanjaro District, Tanzania
Your support of Focus on AIDS is currently enabling us to build Arnold's House in the Kili region of Tanzania. This facility will provide safe housing and educational facilities for up to 80 children whose lives have been derailed by HIV/AIDS. Tanzania has one of the world's largest populations of so-called "AIDS orphans" living in the streets of Kilimanjaro. They have no hope, no place to rest, eat, or learn. Arnold's House will provide the basics a child needs in order to secure a future.
