Children of the Dawn was set up in May 2002 to support and strengthen rural community initiatives which focus on caring for HIV/AIDS orphans and vulnerable children in South Africa. Children of the Dawn's goal is to give back a future to these affected children. By applying Children of the Dawn's model, rural communities are given the financial and technical means to care for their children with a long-term, sustained and holistic approach, looking at the whole spectrum of children's needs. At Children of the Dawn, we believe in community responses to the challenge of orphaned and vulnerable children who are cared for within their extended family or community settings.

In no way would we publish any picture that is insensitive and degrading or that will bring harm to our children. However we have to use their images to tell our story and share our highs and lows but will never do so in a disrespectful manner. Please do not use our images without our consent. Thank you.
