Camp Sizanani
Camp Sizanani was founded as a joint venture between Global Camps Africa, a non-profit headquartered in Reston, Virginia, and HIVSA, a South African foundation that provides care and services to HIV-affected individuals. Located in the town of Magaliesburg in the Gauteng province of South Africa, Sizanani offers multiple camp sessions throughout the year for children aged nine through fifteen whose lives have been affected by HIV. The term ''HIV-affected'' can imply that an individual is ''infected'' with the virus, but it can also mean that the infection of family members or guardians have impacted the individual's life. While some children at Sizanani carry HIV, many more have been orphaned by a parent's AIDS-related death or have family members coping with the disease. Nearly all of Sizanani's campers come from Soweto, Johannesburg's enormous township, to which many black Africans were relegated during South Africa's apartheid era. The children attend the camp free of charge; they are sponsored by Global Camps Africa and its donors.
==Goals==
Sizanani takes its name from a Zulu word which translates idiomatically to mean "help each other". It is largely modeled on the North American summer camp tradition. Accordingly, its stated goals include fostering independence, self-esteem, cooperative skills, respect for others and awareness of HIV/AIDS and other health issues. This final goal is particularly unique to Sizanani, given the children's backgrounds and the AIDS crisis that continues to grip South Africa.
