Meet Mariam in Uganda; she is an orphan and living with HIV
Meet Mariam, her siblings and her grandmother, Jjaja, a family who endured more than most. Jjaja has lost 10 out of her 11 children and is now struggling to raise her grandchildren. Mariam, is a HIV positive orphan. We are allowed to take a peek into their house using a Kino light, the interior pitch black with absolutely no ventilation. Recently we found out the house is collapsing due to a heavy rainy season. Orphan Bracelet Campaign is raising money to build them a new home: http://bit.ly/b5ULfU (www.orphanbracelet.org)
