Oudtshoorn has an urgent need for volunteers to assist in the upliftment of the local poorer community. There are hundreds of uncared for children wandering the streets, their only other prospects being either an empty house or a "home" where violence and drunken abuse tend to be the norm.
Little children have to bear the weight of responsibilities that were never supposed to be theirs. They are left to fend for themselves and more often than not are forced to care for younger siblings, despite the fact that they are barely old enough to take care of themselves.
Our aim with this volunteering project is quite simply, to give these children the opportunity to be just that...Children. To provide them with a safe little oasis of their own, where they can learn and play, where they are loved, cared for, have a ear that listens and a hand that assists when theirs cannot reach.
But in order for us to help these children we need your help...because without any ears to listen, the plea of these children will not be heard. Come and help us HELP THE CHILDREN OF BRIDGTON, FOR REAL!
