This past December students in EFFORT partnered with Lake Forest resident, Allison Godwin Neumeister and made blankets for children in Africa who are are born HIV positive and have lost at least one parent to AIDS. These children are beautiful and truly the most vulnerable children in Africa.   


"I wish I could convey the joy these children felt when they received the blankets. They've never received anything this nice. They'll never forget that special day in their lives.  Go EFFORT! You're really changing lives. Fifteen kids won't be shivering tonight."  ~Allison Godwin Neumeister
