Upcoming Donation
Tusk Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering youth through basketball, is running a major philanthropic initiative to support an orphanage in Ghana that provides care for children born with HIV. The foundation will be donating essential food items, clothing, and a monetary contribution to ensure the well-being and brighter future of these vulnerable children.
This critical donation comes at a time when thousands of children in Ghana are living with HIV, often facing not only health challenges but also significant stigma and discrimination. According to recent statistics from UNAIDS, an estimated 18,000 children aged 0-14 are living with HIV in Ghana, and over 250,000 children have been orphaned by the AIDS epidemic. These children are frequently ostracized and lack access to basic necessities, including proper nutrition, healthcare, and education.
Challenge
Tusk Foundation is calling on its supporters and the general public to join them in this vital mission. Donations of any amount will contribute directly to providing these children with the care and support they desperately need.
Summary
At the Tusk Foundation, we believe in the power of teamwork and community to uplift the most vulnerable among us, These children are not defined by their diagnosis, but by their dreams and their resilience. Through this donation, we want to provide them with the essentials of a healthy childhood – nutritious food, comfortable clothing, and the financial support needed for their care and education. We want to show them that they are not forgotten, that they are loved, and that a bright future is possible
