Overview

25:40 is a 501(3)(c) nonprofit organization, founded in 2003, to help save children impacted by HIV/AIDS and poverty in southern Africa. The core of our mission is to empower communities to save children. We are inspired by Jesus’ words in Matthew Chapter 25, verse 40: “And the King shall reply, ‘Whatever you do for the least of these brothers of mine, you do for me.’”

25:40’s current focus is on children living in two rural areas of South Africa’s Eastern Cape. Formerly known as the Ciskei and Transkei homelands, and currently the Amatole and Oliver Tambo Districts, both regions are characterized by extreme poverty, high incidences of HIV/AIDS and other disease and high incidences of violence toward women and children.

 
CURRENT PROJECTS
25:40’s current focus is on children living in rural areas of South Africa’s Eastern Cape. We have selected this area as our place of initial focus due to its extreme poverty, lack of resources and lack of attention from the outside world.
THE AIDS IMPACT
The Sub-Saharan AIDS epidemic has a devastating effect on millions of families. Consider that 5.3 million adults and children live with HIV/AIDS in South Africa alone. Discover the hard facts about AIDS, and help become a part of the solution.
