Day 9 - Ikageng: When Children Raise Themselves
Imagine being a mother to over 1500 children, meet Mum Carol Dyanti of Soweto, South Africa. She has created a new model for family for orphans living in child-headed households in Soweto, South Africa. These children have experienced first-hand the true devastation of losing their parents and guardians to AIDS. Siblings continue to live together in their homes and Ikageng provides for all the basic needs of the children, relieving the pressure on older children who, having lost their parents to AIDS, are forced to take on adult roles.
Mum Carol’s story is another reason why we do what we do at Keep a Child Alive. Text BUYLIFE to 90999 to give $10 to help us continue these daily inspirational stories of hope, love and strength.See all of our Daily Inspirations.
