Africa, AIDS is wiping out a generation of parents,
leaving 13 million orphans behind. A similar thing
is happening in cities all across America. AIDS,
drugs, and violence are wiping out a generations
of parents, leaving millions of children behind.
Grandmothers, often impoverished themselves, are
rescuing the children and struggling to raise them.
This film introduces two outstanding projects – one in the Bronx, one in
Tanzania. The founders of these projects are finding simple and effective ways
to support grandmothers who are raising grandchildren. Children who were “at
risk” are now thriving. Grandmothers who felt hopeless are beginning to
hope again. |
