HELP…580
of the world’s neediest kids. They are the children
born into the Joe Slovo, Gamalatjie and Thabo Mbeki “informal
settlements,” the euphemistically named shanty town slums on the
outskirts of Johannesburg, South Africa. Their home lives are
parlous, a desperate daily diet of murder and rape, of alcohol
and drugs, of incest, pregnancy and abuse. They live eight, ten,
twelve to a one room tin hovel, with no sewerage, electricity,
running water or toilets.
In one way, though
these kids are luckier than many of their peers in other slums.
These three
informal settlements are close to Blair Atholl Schools, which
was founded by, and is in part funded by, the great South
African golfer, Gary Player.
These 580 children are students there. Although drastically
overcrowded, with 80+ students to a classroom and desks so
tightly crammed together that educators cannot move between them,
and with resources limited to just one text book per ten or
eleven other children,
the kids do receive basic education in reading, writing,
arithmetic. They even have twenty
computers. Yet they cannot
access the Internet. Why? The schools cannot afford the access charges. Help us bring the
Internet to these unfortunate kids. Imagine the impact on
impressionable minds of being able to see a world beyond their
sordid existence.
