I believe Orphanage Africa is a great cause. I am doing this because to make a positive difference in children's lives and to encourage others to do the same.

Goal

ACT Africa wishes to implement their Orphanage Africa Project. Their project consists of the following: providing support to orphanages under the wing of ACT Africa, through food relief, taking the children out, assisting with infrastructure improvement and GBV&F and Human Trafficking Awareness & Education and Self Defense workshops.

For this project ACT Africa is raising money for food relief, washing machines and gift packs for Bakgethwa Orphanage and the House Group CYCC and a washing Machine for No More Victims Safe House for Children.

ACT Africa's mission is to save lives through awareness and education, focusing on prevention and breaking the vicious cycles of gender-based violence and human trafficking thereby reducing the statistics.

Too often we are bombarded with images of the African continent, as an impoverished region, with an over-reliance on help from the Western World however middle-class Africa exists with an increasing number of young, affluent and professionals that are doing their bit to boost the welfare of the more vulnerable groups, such as orphans and homeless children, who are simply looking for an opportunity and a renewed chance at life.
