We had the opportunity to participate in a give back activity through a co-worker’s foundation and got to spend a Saturday with some wonderful kids at a Safe Home on the outskirts of Johannesburg. These children are taken from their homes–due to abuse, neglect, runaways, etc. A wonderful Indian couple has opened up their home and without any funding from the government, started this safe home for children. When we were there, they housed 14 kids ranging from 2 up to 14 in a 3 bdrm 1000 sq. foot home. I was so impressed by their big hearts and humility. We spent the morning reading, wrestling and just playing with the children. It was great for Aubrey, Emmaus, Titan and Rajko to also experience the joy of giving away their things to other children who need it more. We will definitely go back again for a visit soon!
