Valburgue's Story:

Valburgue’s mother had to leave their home village to run away from the stigma and discrimination of HIV/AIDS when her husband died and no one in the family would support her and her four children. They came to Beira to start a new life and slept in the church until someone with a good heart gave them a temporary place to stay. Some months later she was given land to build a small house with the local material (grass). That is where the family is now living. Valburgue is able to go to school now because of his sponsor!
