orphans and vulnerable children, support for two Vaalwater-area schools and a multitude of youth development and community empowerment programs. One of the programs Wilson is particularly proud to support is Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT), which works to teach pregnant women who are HIV-positive how to avoid passing the virus to their babies. Another is the Boys2Men program, targeted at orphaned or vulnerable teenage boys with no fathers or other male role models. “They are learning about setting goals, overcoming obstacles and developing a sense of responsibility for themselves, their future families and their community,” she says. On her most recent trip to South Africa this September, Wilson helped in a soup kitchen that’s operated, in part, by disadvantaged students from two organizations The Wilson Foundation supports. In the morning, she and the students made hundreds of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and kids from the community began lining up for them at noon. “There we were, working side by side with the children we were helping to

support, who were in turn helping other children in need. I was so moved by their sense of gratitude and desire to help others,” she says.

key to the foundation’s success is in having local representatives “on the ground” in the community to ensure that donors’ funds are being used wisely. She doesn’t believe in just “sending money,” but in guiding and lending expertise to break the cycle of poverty. So she travels back and forth between continents, always on the lookout for new ways to fund her charitable endeavors. Recently, she partnered with her friend,
