Other Parents work among the deeply poor includes care for widows, the elderly, and the chronically ill in places where good medical care is lacking. Among this group are those who have HIV. Across the globe, it is common to find communities where HIV stigma leaves people abandoned and without incomes to feed themselves or their children. Many become depressed. As their health deteriorates, so does their ability to care for themselves. Some prefer to end their life rather than continue suffering.
Other Parents empowers our partners and caregivers to provide fellowship, food, prayer, and medical care to the sick and dying within our reach.
For the elderly, there are no nursing homes or places to go to be cared for in their twilight years. If someone does not have grown children to care for them, they often are left alone. When they become too old to work, they have no means to feed themselves or buy blankets or clothing to keep warm.
