Khayelihle Children’s Village (KCV)

Khayelihle Children’s Village (KCV) is a beautiful home to orphaned and vulnerable children. KCV was established in 1994 when statistics indicated that over 22.5 million of Africa’s populations were living with HIV/AIDS. While the AIDS epidemic that motivated the opening of KCV has waned, the economic situation in Zimbabwe means that many parents still feel compelled to abandon their children. KCV is a beautiful home to around 50 orphaned and vulnerable children who have lost or been abandoned by their parents. The village is organised into family units and family re-connection is encouraged. The expanding KCV farm and dairy cows helps towards their goal of eventual self-sustainability.
