CARA helps through education and raising awareness in communities to combat HIV/AIDS since HIV/AIDS is one of the dangerous diseases in developing countries where millions of childrebn are left orphans and as well many adults are left widows. HIV undermines not just social well-being, but the economy as well. The potential threat of HIV and AIDS is something that cannot be ignored.

CARA provides opportunities for those affected by HIV through its advisory services, training volunteers, free condom distribution, promotion of access to voluntary HIV counselling and testing as well as efforts to mitigate the effect of HIV/AIDS in poor communities since these are the effective ways in reducing the spread of HIV.

Since people in developing world especially children and women walk hours and hours every day to fetch water that is unsafe and likely to cause diseases such as diarrhea and cholera, CARA will help by building hygienic wells and raising awareness of unsafe or inadequate supplies of water, poor hygiene and sanitation that cause diseases and killing people than other forms of violence.
