Saving one Child at a Time
TTL serves the most in-need children in one of the poorest countries in Africa by providing access to health care, offering health education and combating malnutrition.
TTL is the only organization exclusively dedicated to caring for orphaned and vulnerable children in the rural, mountainous districts of Mokhotlong, Lesotho where we work. We support children affected by HIV/AIDS and ensure our clients are able to grow, develop, and thrive.
Our Commitment to Individual Intervention
Deep in the mountains of Lesotho, TTL’s dedicated outreach workers come across intense, acute need one child at a time. We don’t measure the scope of our impact solely by the numbers, but by every plump cheek and sweet smile. We often go to places big nonprofits can’t reach, where families are forever grateful that we didn’t let them go forgotten and offered a helping hand — not to their country, or even their village, but to their family, their son, their daughter. We are forever grateful, in turn, to our passionate donors who know there is value in our approach. Our motto is “One child at a time.” It is one we passionately believe in and have no plans to change.
