On Mandela Day we visited orphanages in Soweto, The Soweto Salvation Army Children’s Home and Othandweni Children’s Home in honour of Nelson Mandela Day. The initiative was the first for FEDHASA Inland, and was an exciting venture for us. The spirit of giving and sharing had already entwined with us before we even left for the venues. By the time we arrived and met the children, emotions were running high. The best part was seeing the children’s little hearts fill with joy and this will forever be with us.
