A test of character

Sun, 09/20/2020 - 14:03

South Africa and all its educational institutions was hit hard in 2020 by the pandemic which holds the world in thrall. The schools were shut for months, people lost their livelihoods and families were forced to spend time at home together in cramped conditions as part of a lockdown which they themselves weren’t quite able to comprehend. Our school too was affected by the government’s restrictions. Since then the school and the local community have been fighting to maintain a degree of normality, but just as you thought things had returned to normal, new restrictions appear which prevent normal lessons from taking place.

But just as Nelson Mandela said, we will keep trying to stand up and go on our way. We are counting on your support and hope that we can meet the challenges to come with the help of many.

“The greatest thing one can achieve is not never to stumble, but rather to get up, dust oneself off and walk on.” – Quote Nelson Mandela

In our projects, our main focus is on educational support, especially in our school projects. We believe that education is the pathway to empower people to build a better future for themselves.

Continuously supporting schools in their operation is just as well part of our work as is the construction and improvement of school infrastructure. Creating access to a secure educational environment free of charge in poor regions with comparatively high educational costs and inadequate public facilities is our goal.

Select one of many children from our schools around the world and become their hero!

Hundreds of children attend our schools around the world, from India to Central America, from South Africa to the Philippines, thanks to the generosity of our heroes.

Many women and men support us and have supported us through generous donations.

Nevertheless, only a few have taken the responsibility, the challenge, and the courage to donate regularly through our sponsorship programme.

If you feel the call to become a hero and want to commit to helping our children, check out our sponsorship programme and become one.

Your sponsorship will bring a book, a meal, a ride, a uniform, a classroom, education against bullying and many other necessary things to one or hundreds of children from our school projects.

THANK YOU for your support!
