This is in the beautiful sub-tropical area of Kwazulu-Natal not far from Durban. Dawn Leppan, founder of 1000 Hills Community Helpers has dedicated her life to improving the lives of HIV/Aids infected and affected children and adults through feeding schemes, clinics, counseling, Home-based care, crèches and support groups. These pictures are of women learning trade skills in bead work and textiles, and also a nursing school class. Jon & Julie Jouvenaux's young daughter, Jacy, collected 2800 Rand from our group in about 20 minutes. This equals 400 U.S. dollars which will provide 4 whole months of meals for the community. As Dawn received the gift, tears swelled in our eyes witnessing the joy on her face.
