Lesotho is a small country (about the size of Maryland) in Southern Africa. It is home to over 1.8 million people.
Challenges for Lestho:
- Lesotho suffers from the third highest rate of HIV infection in the world. Almost one-quarter of the adult population is estimated to be HIV-positive.
- Healthy life expectancy: 35.
- 60 percent of the population lives at subsistence level . Only 7 percent of households have access to electricity and only 12 percent to running water.
The Children:
Nearly 1 of 3 children in Lesotho live as orphans. Thousands are in need of even the most basic necessities of food and clothing.
Just wanted to let you know that your site helpped me out today. We are studying about prayer in a wednesday night class at church. God bless you and your ministry!
I am from Lesotho and I live here in the US, thank you for your love and support, I am encouraged by thus to also do more.
