| Thanks to the marvels of the internet, Infinite Family helps bridge gaps both physical and cultural between the United States and Africa. Through online video chats, Infinite Family creates a safe and personal forum for adult mentors to communicate with South African children affected HIV/AIDs and poverty. It starts with a conversation, but soon becomes so much more.
Becoming a mentor through Infinite Family requires less than you might think. With little more than a computer & one half hour a week, you can be on your way to being a positive light in the life of a South African child.
Mentors must be at least 21 years of age & approved through an application process.
In order to support video chat capabilities, mentors must have a high-speed internet connection & a webcam.
Mentors will undergo a short online training program aimed at helping them understand the culture, the technology & the children. Following the training mentors, will be ready to chat with their Net Buddies.
