    DEBT in South Africa

    15 years into the New Democracy and South Africa is starting to feel the impact of the pre-1994 historical abuse and atrocities. Having first visited Soweto in July 2004, it has taken me 5 years to understand the desperate need to empower those Township communities affected by the pre-1994 history, and in particular the debt that I have to the South African society. I have started repaying my debt and our focus now is on finding a solution to a structure where others can contribute to ... read more >

    Empower Orphans

    1 am 13 years old and hope that other people join me in my cause. Background According to the UN, it is estimated that there are currently 145 million orphans and/or abandoned children in the world.

This cycle results in a high rate of orphan suicide, and the need to turn to organized crime and prostitution for survival- ultimately ... read more >
