This week has been a week of colds and fever!

Many of our children were sick this week, including quite a few of the mammas. However even sickness didn’t cause them to stay away from school because they were performing in the school concert.

The school concert was really good and the children enjoyed every moment of it. The theme was “Countries of the World”, inspired by the Soccer World Cup. Each grade did a sequence based on a different country, really foot stamping music and dancing. (Sorry we can’t show you pictures of the children in the concert, but we were not allowed to take pictures)

The hospice children singing!

This little boy has been with us since November last year (see our January post). On Wednesday he turned 13 he was so happy to be able to blow out his candles and have people singing to him.

Mama Lyn's 50th birthday!!!

On Monday we had a party for mama Lyn’s. All the children made birthday cards and came up to the office to sing for her, they even counted up to 50, what a long count

Eli Lilly's CSI workday!

In South Africa companies are encouraged to do a corporate Social Investment (CSI). And as you know South Africa has many homes that need help and it’s really hard for companies to choose which home they would like to do their CSI workday. And that is why we are so grateful for companies like Eli Lilly who chose us.
