AIDS Support

Tony Waite Organisation was formed after the death of Tony Waite a Kariba resident who suffered full blown AIDS and went public about his HIV status in 1991. He was born in 1935 and died at 57 years of age. He worked for Zambezi River Authority (ZRA) in Kariba and left a will to look after orphans. He grew up as an orphan and never got married and died in January 1992 which saw the formation of Tony Waite Foundation in 1993. The Organisation went into partnership with Batsirai a private voluntary Organisation operating in Chinhoyi, Mashonaland West Province and scaled up its activities in National Action Plan for orphans and vulnerable children (NAP for OVC) 2007-2010. This was funded by UNICEF. The Organisation continued to grow and was registered as a Private Voluntary Organisation in 2011 ( PVO 45/11) Tony Waite Organisation is currently operating in Kariba, Mashonaland West Province of Zimbabwe, Africa and now has since worked with a number of donors and partners.
