Description:
Global Crossroad's volunteer in Kenya project now offers opportunities to work on AIDS projects. Every years AIDS claims the lives of thousands of Kenyan children and adults. It is estimated that about 900,000 Kenyans are infected with HIV/AIDS and that number is expanding rapidly. Real efforts are therefore needed to prevent human disaster in this millennium. In collaboration with local groups, Global Crossroad has established HIV/AIDS projects seeking to foster awareness among the local communities. Ideally, volunteers in this project will be trained together with the local experts for a period of one week. For the following weeks, volunteers and local experts will together engage in training, education, and demonstration activities to increase HIV/AIDS awareness in the local Kenyan population. As this project is very challenging participants should be prepared to learn and also train others as this project goes forward.
