HOPE Africa recently accompanied a volunteer to Leliebloem Children’s Home to meet and interact with the young people of the facility. The volunteer is an MBA student and has shown a keen interest in the work of HOPE Africa, particularly the work involving vulnerable children.
Leliebloem is a residential facility for children from the age of four to eighteen who come from troubled homes. The Home offers a safe, loving space to the children while in their care. Service that are offered include counselling, therapy, re-unification programmes with families, etc.
We spent the afternoon engaging with the children and encouraging them to continue with school as education is the key to unlocking a brighter future, not only for them but for their families as well. The children informed us of their morning activities, which involved extra mural activities such as sport, completing homework and doing their chores.
They were also very keen to show us their latest dance routines!
Together with the volunteer, we donated a supply of school supplies, colour-in books and crayons for the younger children as well as their favourite afternoon snack, noodles.
We are extremely thankful for your generous support to our work. Together we can reach many more children in need of nurturing, love and care.
God bless
