In Swaziland it is estimated that more
than ½ of the total population are orphaned and vulnerable
children. Young girls are getting pregnant as they seek help from men to
get food for their younger siblings. This is resulting in early
teenage pregnancy and many abandoned babies. Heart for Africa is called
to help those young girls and the babies who are found in pit latrines
or on the side of the road to die. The El Roi Baby Home will provide a
loving, caring home for babies who have been abandoned by mothers who
could not care for them in their own poverty. El Roi Baby Home opened on
February 1st, 2012.
