This activity was approved in the FY 2007 COP. PEPFAR funds were allocated to Kingdom Trust through

NMCF to provide OVC services. Kingdom Trust provided psychosocial support training and HIV prevention

education for OVC. In addition, Kingdom Trust facilitated training of child care forums (CCFs), which are

community based structures focusing on the needs of OVC. In July 2007, USAID received the report that

Kingdom Trust will not be able to accept PEPFAR funds since the Board has dissolved the organization. In

order to ensure continuity of the services rendered by Kingdom Trust, the $240,000 approved in FY 2007

and also earmarked $240,000 for FY 2008 are requested to be reallocated to increase the capacity of

CWSA, which works in the same province where Kingdom Trust was operating, to ensure continuity of

services. Therefore, the original earmark for Kingdom Trust in FY 2008 will increase CWSA to continue

rendering services in Limpopo and there is no need to continue Kingdom Trust in FY 2008. No FY 2008

funding is requested for this activity.
