About Me |
After my second trip to the continent of Africa I made the decision to stand up against chronic poverty and do something about it, thus I created The Themba Development Project. With the help of my wonderful supporters and the dedication of my ground staff living in Thembalethu, together we are changing the lives of not only this community but also the tiny rural village of Nqiningana.
We are providing school supplies, materials for housing, and building up the community infrastructure so that each family has the capacity to grow their own food. The gardens are now overflowing due to our intervention.
Someone once told me that one person cannot change the world, to that person I say WHY NOT! We have already changed the world for so many people, if we all contribute, even $5 , we will change the lives of an entire community, an entire generation of people who without our help would have nothing.
