The Commercial Farmers’ Union’s AIDS Control Programme was run by a commercial farmer’s wife, Kerry Kay, on a voluntary basis after she accepted the position of Project Manager in 1995. This
programme was judged by UN AIDS as the best of its type internationally and it has been used as a model for other projects. Here Kerry comforts the blind wife of a farm worker displaced by the devastating farm invasions.
