How does SOS Children’s Villages tackle the issue of HIV/AIDS? Despite the growing demand for humanitarian assistance around the globe, emergency response programmes are only a small part of SOS Children’s Villages’ work. SOS Children’s Villages is able to respond swiftly to emergencies through its network of facilities to help victims, by running its own relief programmes or collaborating with government agencies, the UN or other NGOs. We also run permanent facilities such as kindergartens, schools, medical and social centres within communities. We help keep families together and in cases where children have either lost their parents or they can no longer live with them, we can offer long-term solutions. SOS Children’s Villages’ main aim is to provide long-term support for children and families.
