At Help Lesotho our vision is for the youth of Lesotho to have the resiliency and agency to create healthy and self-sustaining futures. We firmly believe that real, positive change happens when a person is able to heal their heart and equip their mind.

Over the past 20 years our work has been strategically tailored to help vulnerable people build resilience so they can heal and move forward with their lives in healthy and productive ways. Each one of our programs includes unique approaches to resilience-building by helping participants boost their confidence and self-esteem.
