Mark Says Goodbye

Mark, who has been a volunteer with the children's home for the last three months said a sad goodbye to Carol, Bertus and the children last week. Everyone has been through a dramatic time together, but it's been an amazing experience to share it and feel hope growing each day. Mark was sent off by a loevly display of singing and dance from the children, which was caught on video below. A big thanks to Luke for organising and leading this touching display! Mark will continue to help Carol and Bertus from back in the UK and hopes to come to help again in the not too distant future.

We are now pleased to welcome a new volunteer, Martyna from Canada, who will continue to provide much needed assistance for helping run the home and giving care to the children.
