  Shiselweni Reformed Home-Based Care (SHBC) is a church-founded organisation with the Christian vision "to be the hands and feet of Christ in the community"; the organisation has 872 Home-Based Caregivers (trained volunteers who work for no compensation) across 33 communities in the southern (Shiselweni) region of Swaziland - the country with the highest HIV infection rate in the world. These Home-Based Caregivers provide holistic care to people living with HIV/AIDS, bringing true hope and restoring a sense of dignity to their clients. SHBC has 4 ministries: (1) Home-Based Care; (2) Free Wheelchair Ministry; (3) Feeding Programmes at several neighbourhood carepoints, focusing on orphaned and vulnerable children; and (4) Early Childhood Development.
