2010 British 10K London run · 11 July 2010 ·

CHIVA Africa is working at the frontline to ensure that no child is born with HIV and no child dies from a treatable condition. In communities where we serve, many pregnant women are living with HIV — but with early diagnosis and treatment, transmission to their babies can be prevented. We support healthcare workers to identify mothers early, start treatment, and protect every child before birth. For babies born with HIV, time is critical. We help clinics find these infants quickly, start lifesaving treatment, and ensure they receive the care they need to survive and thrive. We also support children living with HIV and their caregivers, providing both clinical guidance and emotional support so that every child can grow up healthy and strong. Using real-time health data, we identify children at risk and ensure no one is left behind. Beyond treatment, we empower young people through prevention programmes that give them knowledge, confidence, and hope. Every mother supported is a child protected. Every child reached is a life saved.

BRITISH 10K LONDON  RUN

Kim Chilman-Blair, Jane Shaw, Marcia Spinola, Sarah Cooke  and Paddy McMaster

6 volunteers will each run 10km: a total of 37 miles (almost 1½ marathons!)

On the 11th of July Team CHIVA Africa take to the streets in the British 10k run.  They are raising money to support our important work in South Africa. Our children in KwaZulu Natal on ARVs need YOUR support.
CHIVA Africa's dedicated volunteers, for the past 6 years, sacrifice valuable holiday and family time to provide support and mentorship to their colleagues working throughout KwaZulu Natal, in understaffed hospitals both rural and urban, providing them with the practical skills they need to treat children with HIV.  These dedicated healthcare professionals are now providing care for close to 40 000 children throughout the province.  Children who, before treatment, would have DIED before the age of five are thriving.  We need YOUR to help see these children safely through adolescence and into adulthood, as well as extend our programme to other parts of South Africa and beyond where it is desperately needed. 
We need YOUR support in order to fund this vital work.  Your donation can make all the difference.  Please help fund our wonderful volunteers, so they can continue to support our South African colleagues in their quest to save more lives and give the children who are the future- a future worth living.
