Keiskamma – A Story of Love

Like many other communities in rural Africa the tiny hamlet of Hamburg, in South Africa’s Eastern Cape is fighting a life and death battle – its population has been decimated by HIV/Aids. Now the women there are struggling to keep the community alive through the disciplined use of anti-retro virals (ARVS). Backed by the Keiskamma art project, a small HIV/Aids programme was begun in 2004. Today the Keiskamma Aids treatment programme continues to treat poor patients who cannot access the government programmes.
