New hope for missing children
This will help legal authorities and organisations to reunite a missing child with their parents.
AROUND South Africa and even in the Alberton area we come across a lot of posters of missing people and also missing children.
The saddest part of it is to see another poster where it shows that the child or person have been found, but dead. There is hope all thanks to the Pink Ladies which is an organisation who helps find missing children and adults.
They now have a fantastic initiative where children have to give their fingerprints and their vital details that police need when one is reported missing, recorded on a certificate and then given to parents for safekeeping. Parents then get the certificates back with their children’s personal information such as age, weight, distinguishing features, fingerprints and a recent photograph of the child.
On July 29, during the Alberton CPF’S Boerie Roll Day, the organisation invited parents to bring their children to get their certificates. They did this at no cost.
If something should happen to your child, you attach the latest photo of the child and hand the certificate to the SAPS.
