Jordan
Wine Estate, one of South Africa’s leading wine estates, situated in
Stellenbosch, South Africa, is proud to announce their involvement at Prince
Harry’s Sentebale Gala Dinner which will take place on the 27th February at Summer Place in Johannesburg, to
mark the launch of Sentebale’s major capital fundraising programme to build the
first permanent Mamohato Centre for children and young people.
About Sentebale
Sentebale
was set up in 2006 by Prince Harry from the British royal family and Prince Seeiso
of Lesotho. Sentebale is a Sesotho (language of Lesotho) word meaning ‘forget
me not’ in English. The charity was founded in memory of the two princes’ late
mothers, and helps the most vulnerable children in Lesotho who are affected by
HIV/AIDS.
The Mamohato Centre -
named after Prince Seeiso’s mother, Queen 'Mamohato Bereng Seeiso - will be
built on the sacred land of Thaba-Bosiu in Lesotho, known to many as the
birthplace of the nation. The facility will allow Sentebale to reach four times
the number of children than before and will provide leading psychosocial care
and peer mentoring for children and young people infected with or affected by
HIV – removing the stigma attached to the disease, inspiring confidence,
self-reliance and most importantly making a marked improvement in these young
people’s quality of life. www.sentebale.org
