Nyiko lives in extreme poverty with both parents. Nyiko's father is from Mozambique, which makes it difficult to find a job. Nyiko's mother takes care of the children. With little or no income it is a challenge to feed all mouths every day. Thanks to sponsorship, Nyiko gets a hot meal at least once a day and Nyiko can go to school so that she can work on her future. Nyiko loves to play volleyball and would like to become a teacher later on.
In South Africa, the difference between rich and poor is very large. As a result, children and young people often go on the criminal path out of boredom and hopelessness, often they get into drugs.

We deliberately do not have a CBF quality mark. However, we do meet a number of important conditions of this quality mark. One of the reasons that we do not have this quality mark is the costs that are charged for this; this would significantly increase our overhead costs. We prefer to spend this money on the projects we support.
