Aidchild

Aidchild, a not-for-profit organization incorporated in both Uganda and the United States, was established in 2000 as a hospice center for children living with AIDS whose family or extended family members could not care for them. In 2002, it became the first pediatric facility in Uganda to provide free anti-retroviral drugs to children. As of 2009, founder Nathaniel Dunigan reported that more than 3,000 children had received care and treatment through Aidchild's inpatient and outpatient services, including a laboratory, two clinics, homes, and academies in Masaka and Mpigi, Uganda.[1] By 2011, according to tax filings, it had increased the number of children who lived in the facilities to 96.[2]

Aidchild is supported by a mix of government and private donors and income-generating activities.
