‘For many children in South Africa,
life is their biggest challenge.
Living in poor rural communities,
overcrowded townships and
dilapidated inner cities,
these children do not have the privilege
of private medical care,
a school library brimming with books,
a computer at home or in some instances,
parents to love and protect them.
What they often face is a childhood
lost to poverty, disease,
poor social services
and broken homes’
