  • To care for and support through sponsorship (“Julian’s Children” GoGo Trusts’ Orphan Care Programme) vulnerable children and children who are living as  AIDS orphans  in Aunt Headed Households  or Granny Headed Households in Kwazakhele and surrounding township communities in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. The objective of Julian’s Children is to improve the welfare of these vulnerable children and to provide opportunity for continued education and training which would otherwise be unattainable.
