OPENING YOUR HEART AND HOME TO A FOSTER CHILD

The Soweto bombings that shocked the country in 2002 left two children without parents. Mary and Joseph Mokoena had no one to look after them. Their mother's relatives were living in Lesotho and their stepfather left them immediately after their mother's death. 

Thusong Service Centres 

Government is committed to improving the quality of life for all South Africans through better service delivery.

One of the ways in which this is done is through Thusong Service Centres. They give people access to information and services near their homes.

One-stop centres

The story of a Grade 11 pupil who gave birth at a school in Johannesburg last year, presents challenges to us all. This was the second incident in two months.

HELPING RURAL COMMUNITIES TO SHINE

Reaching out with Project Ukuziza

The Ukusiza Project has uplifted the spirits of a number of small Ermelo farmers in Mpumalanga who are now able to become big commercial farmers. 

These new farmers have one goal - they aim to change from subsistence farming (meeting their personal needs) to farming to make money. The Ukusiza Project helps them to breed cattle which are suited to the conditions of the area. 

… IT STARTS WITH YOU

"Noka e tlatswa ke dinokana" is a Sesotho term meaning "A river swells from little streams." This is the motto of the Movement for Good, which is aimed at getting South Africans to help create the country they want to live in. 

If everyone in the country does something small that is positive, it will swell like a river to become one big positive wave.

Fighting HIV and AIDS together

Government’s Khomanani programme and other campaigns, like Lovelife and the TV drama, Soul City, are successfully helping to make people more aware of HIV and AIDS, how to prevent it and how to live with it.

This was found by a study done jointly by Health and Development Africa, the Centre for AIDS Research and Development, Soul City, and the American Johns Hopkins Health and Education company in South Africa.
