Our Children

We have about 35 children in our care. This number changes from time to time. Some of the children are placed with us because their parents are ill. When they are better, the children are returned to them.


Here are a few of them.


Davis, born 1999


Davis's father died in a road accident in 1999 the same year that Davis was born. His mother is unable to look after Davis or his older sister Vannessa as she has no income.

Davis has a permanent smile on his face. He works well at school and is developing well.


He likes to make things, a recent achievement was a truck that is able to empty its load by operating a lever.


Vanessa
Vanessa is Davis's sister. She is about 11 years old and very shy.

Obviously, her situation is the same as for Davis.
