Faith and Hope Counselling Services Ltd by Guarantee is a non-governmental organization (NGO) established in 2012 and founded on the ideals of promoting awareness on the spread of HIV/AIDS by participating in conducting outreach programmes, educating and training care givers, voluntary counselling and testing (VCT), conducting seminars on prevention of HIV/AIDS and many others such as STDS, TB and Malaria.
Our mission is to promote sustainable development within our communities who are most affected by the HIV/AIDS pandemic particularly women, children and young people. We believe that knowledge is the key element in improving health. Through education and continuous training, we will achieve equitable access to health, social and educational services and facilitate sustainable livelihood programmes. We endeavour to introduce newer methodologies of testing, diagnosis and conduct innovative training programmes to reach out to the communities. We have also focussed much attention to those who are physically challenged and are HIV positive and the elderly people who are HIV positive and involved them more into community activities (estimates suggest that around 13% of the people living with HIV in Africa are aged 50 and above).
