SHARED is a non- profit organization to improve access to the essentials of good health for people of Lesotho, a country located in Southern Africa with the world's fourth highest HIV infection rate.
Many thanks to all of our supporters who have contributed so generously to our organization. Over the years we have helped hundreds if not thousands of children and healthcare providers in Lesotho. Lives have been saved and spirits lifted because of our work.
Our Board members deserve special thanks for their hard work and dedication over the years. It is time to close our doors.
To continue our support of the organizations in Lesotho, two of our Board members, Elizabeth Ziemba and Irving Stackpole, have joined the Board of Global Primary Care, a non-profit organization affiliated with Boston Medical Center and the Boston University School of Public Health. Their LeBoHa program has been running for more than a decade building the healthcare infrastructure in Lesotho. Their work inspires us. Please consider contributing to their efforts.
