Little Birds

We make a promise to every child that enters our programs: we won’t give up on you. That means when a family moves away from the slums or a child gets in trouble with the police, we don’t stop helping.

It may means travelling to the new area where they live, finding a partner NGO to help them, and sometimes simply keeping their place in the program open until they can come back.

We have around 40-50 children currently in our Little Birds program. Most of them are living too far from Alexandra and Blum, so we enroll them in their nearby school and our social workers go to visit them each month. When there’s a crisis, we’re only a phonecall away to help.
