home visits, Nketa, Bulawayo

Every week, volunteers from the Center check in with the children on home visits throughout the area. The younger children are being watched today by their older brother (12 years, center), who had to stay home from school today while their mother went out to buy mealie meal. Their father passed away from AIDS two years ago.

The volunteer on the left is also an accomplished vocalist with a local Christian Acapella group, Shalom Ad-nai.
