Lebone Village
Charity in Bloemfontein

Dedicated to bringing hope, dignity and support by providing holistic care to children affected by HIV/AIDS, their families & all people affected by poverty.

The seed for the vision of a care center for children abandoned or orphaned because of HIV/AIDS, was planted in December of As statistics of AIDS orphans were released to the public through the media, it was apparent that none, or very little provision was being made to tend to the children who would remain after the death of their HIV/AIDS infected parents. - from the time the child is accepted at Lebone House and for the duration of his or her life as a child. The child is deemed to be an adult on his/her eighteenth birthday, all to be admitted to the programme on the basis of their need. Because we believe that each child has a right to live within their own family, culture and community Lebone House strives to provide an alternative setting that approximates that of their own family when there is no family. The nursery produces seedlings for our vegetable production as well as some for selling and for the trainees who are helped to start their own vegetable garden at their home. We have food and clothing banks which support this programme. We also provide social support in the form of facilitating workshops between Department of Home Affairs and the community where the people are assisted with applications for ID Documents, Birth Certificates, Pensions & Grants. AIDS Mission Outreach Trust is a legally constituted non-profit organisation and relies solely on donations and contributions from the public. We adhere to a strict ethical code and correct accounting and business procedures are enforced. We believe that we are accountable to all our donors and sponsors and the image of the AIDSMO TRUST will be maintained by ensuring that Standards of Care are met. We have already benefited from bequests due to our positive image in the community. This is the story of how a mustard seed, when planted according to God’s desires, grows up to be a tree, in which many birds may find refuge. With God's help, and through obedience and an openness to hear His desire, Lebone will fulfill all of its aims to bring the light of His love to the children (through the hands of the staff, caregivers and volunteers) & GIVE A CHILD BACK HIS FUTURE !
