One of our international projects, Acacia Childrens Project, has a fundraiser each year to support the needs of HIV orphan children of Embu Kenya. The project works to support the grandmothers who are raising their grandchildren, as well as supports the childrens education. Acacia has also worked to purchase farm land and farm animals to assist the community in meeting their needs. Please visit the project website at www.acaciaproject.com for more information.
