Our Mission

Every child deserves an education.

Vana Vedu means "our children" in the Shona language. Vana Vedu Care is a registered 501 3c charity dedicated to providing educational support for children orphaned by the AIDS/HIV epidemic in rural Zimbabwe where few services are available.

Approximately 83,000 victims died from HIV/AIDS in Zimbabwe in 2013. This small country has the 4th largest rate of infection in the world.

In places where there is little hope, Vana Vedu Care is paying tuition, uniform and book costs for children who would not be in school without our support.
