More about the charities:
Boithuto Community Project – represented by Tracy Le Roux
Helps children and elderly by feeding approximately 160 children and 40 elderly. The project targets child-headed homes and the elderly, building insulated homes for them with a proper door, window and solar lights. It also has a library to help with resource material for the children to complete their homework. Their goal is to provide funding for those who have matriculated to study further, and assist with food parcels for the elderly with household and financial difficulties.
Tutti Music Initiative – represented by Osborne Mnganga
Delinquency in South Africa is a growing concern which leads to serious criminal activities. Tutti Music Initiative helps disadvantaged youths in Soweto by teaching music with a variety of musical instruments. Most of the children can be saved from a life of crime if they are provided with the tools to face the future. It wants to provide them with a sense of purpose in life.
Blind SA – represented by Karin Gouws
Blind SA’s mission is to do whatever is necessary or conducive to empower visually impaired people to become economically self-supporting and to live a full and meaningful life as citizens of South Africa. Blind SA wishes to promote the interests of all visually impaired people. Their biggest challenge is to ensure that all visually impaired people receive independent skills to be able to enjoy life like any other person.
