Story
In Lesotho 23% of the population are HIV+ and there are 41 000 children with AIDS. Without treatment 90% of HIV+ children die before their 5th birthday, and a third will not see their first.
Moyo Lesotho is about using mobile technology to change lives, by getting a generation of young people living with HIV onto treatment. By using mobile technology more children will receive life changing treatment far faster.
The funds I raise will also be used to provide safe deliveries for mothers, preventing maternal deaths and the transmission of HIV from mothers to babies. Every pound I raise will be put to work, changing lives and it will reach more people faster because of mobile technology.
Transport: travel funds will be sent via mobile money so children and expectant mothers can travel to treatment - this costs 20 pounds.
Testing: results will be sent via mobile speeding up both diagnosis and treatment - just 50 pounds will pay for a mobile enabled paediatric HIV test
Treatment: mobile clinics will enable nurses to be connected and more young people to be reached.
Every single penny you can donate will make that difference. Please dig deep and smile as you think of me digging deep on the bike for 9 days at 107 miles per day. Thank you for supporting this worthy cause. I will do my best to ride the miles.
Thank you
