GAIA Programs—
Home Based Care
The numbers of those living with HIV in Malawi are
staggering. Each year tens of thousands of children are
born HIV infected and many more people die of AIDS related illnesses.
Home-based care projects deliver invaluable assistance
to ill people being cared for in their homes.
Volunteers
bring food, simple medicines, supplies, comfort, and a
caring presence to patients. The act of visiting people
infected or affected by HIV frequently requires a measure
of fortitude by the volunteers, owing to fears of
contracting an AIDS-related illness, social opprobrium
due to AIDS-related stigma, and other factors. But in doing so, volunteers help others calm their fears.
