Someone Help This Family


(Little Bongane Makhanda - 2 years old)

I was touched by the story of Bongani Makhanda (2) narrated to me by his brother Pheelo (10); on how Bongani was burnt. “My brother was sitting next to the traditional stove (imbawula); when suddenly I came across and mistakenly kicked the stove which had boiling water. The water fell on my little brother and my elder brother”. Said Pheelo.

He was very sad when the incident happened. This family stays in a 3x3m room. There are 6 in total; no father in the house. The house is built out of corrugated irons. The family survives on monthly grants which is spent within 3 days. The mother is unemployed. We appeal to God’s children to help this family.
