2020 has been a different year - in so many ways. Both the founder and our staff have had sad losses of close family members. The covid-19 has made it impossible to travel and make progress in our projects. But we have worked in the background. We are still working on establishing an orphanage. We have still helped many of the children and disabled in need, financially, with clothes, sponsoring studies and field trips and much more. And we have worked on our web page, to bring it up to 2021 standard.
We want to keep our donors, sponsors and other supporters updated on what is going on with our children. We want to give you an insight into their lives, their stories and their needs and challenges.
Unfortunately, many of the blog posts from before 2020 are not visible. We are working on a solution for this.
Pictures shown on our blog are taken by us or our co-workers. We keep written approvals from photographed individuals on file.

The covid-19 situation in Zululand is far from good. After the covid-19 caused a big lock-down in March 2020, it took a while before it started to spread around in South Africa. There were cases, especially in the bigger cities, but in the rural areas, very few. South Africa desided to do a lock-down from March 23, 2020. On April 1, they started testing for covid-19 at test stations around the country.
