CHIVA
Africa sends teams of doctors, nurses, psychologists, dieticians and
pharmacists from the UK to South Africa to train South African
healthcare professionals on how to treat children and babies living with
HIV. Together with healthcare professionals living and working on the
frontlines of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, CHIVA Africa ensures that tens of
thousands of children get the vital treatment they require to enable
them to lead healthy lives. Visiting teams work with local doctors and
nurses in the worst affected areas to develop the practical skills needed to manage HIV as a chronic illness in children and adolescents.
CHIVA
Africa has enlisted an impressive line-up of celebrity artists and
artistic celebrities to design and decorate wooden rocking horses for
auction at an exclusive event at SOTHEBY’S on 14 November 2013.
“Rocking
all over the World” will raise funds for CHIVA Africa’s Paediatric and
Adolescent AIDS Programme in South Africa. 100% of funds raised will
be used to further the programmes run by CHIVA Africa in South Africa.
All rocking horses have been individually created and signed by the artists.
These
future heirlooms will be auctioned at an invitation only event on
November 14th 2013. All lots will be available for absentee/pre-auction
bids. The form will be available to download from the Stars Rocking website soon. In
