I have meant to post a few pictures from my trip to South Africa for a while now. As always time is the issue.
Anyways - I met these ladies in Nelspruit in South Africa's East in June. They are members of SOS Children's Villages Family Strengthening Program where they receive support to be self sufficient. Plus training on child care, children's and women's rights, health, etc.
Many grandparents nowadays have to take care of their grandchildren as mothers and fathers die from AIDS instead of receiving support themselves.
These ladies here set up a vegetable business. They received property and a grant to buy seeds and equipement. Here you can see them taking care of the ir tiny farm.
