Project HOPE Namibia has collaborated with local partners, including the government of Namibia, to implement programs across nine of the 14 regions of Namibia. In 2002, Project HOPE Namibia was established as a registered welfare organization with the Ministry of Health and Social Services when we implemented a workplace HIV/AIDS program and an orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) program. The innovative OVC program combined family-centered care and support with economic strengthen to reduce household vulnerability and benefited over 30,000 children.
