Awash with stunning scenery, Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) is a beautiful but troubled country. Blighted by HIV/AIDS, it is home to many families who have been left parentless thanks to the disease. When this happens, the oldest child usually takes responsibility for the rest of the children – and often they simply will not be able to find an adequate home.
Get involved in projects and you can assist in building homes specially for such children, as well as giving them some attention they are very much in need of. Help out with tasks such as making mud bricks, building walls and constructing fencing, and immerse yourself in the local community.
