Food Distribution and HIV / AIDS Counseling to Orphans and Vulnerable Children

Client – World Food Program
Location – Mozambique
Year – 2003 – 2004
Time – 2 months

Verde Azul trained counselors to help vulnerable groups in their respective communities, providing food to 1000 people in Maputo province.

The beneficiaries included were HIV / AIDS patients, orphans and vulnerable children.

In each location, meetings were held with the aim of raising awareness about HIV / AIDS and identifying community leaders who were responsible for helping the less fortunate in their respective communities.

The counselors collaborated with groups from the local community as a measure of “training in the workplace”.

This methodology has been successful in training community leaders to deliver services in response to immediate assistance needs.
