Did you know?
Southern Africa is one of the regions hardest hit by disease and poverty.
In the areas where the orphan centers have been built, unemployment rate is 65% and the HIV infection rate is as high as 30%.
The majority of those dying from AIDS are between the ages of 15-49, orphaning millions of children.
In the next five years there will be 2 million orphans in South Africa alone.
South African law discourages resident orphanages and/or adopting their children out of the country.
- Orphan centers are desperately needed.
Santa Cruz DOES Care!
Purpose Statement: Santa Cruz Cares' focus is to raise funds for the building, and operational and material support of Orphan Day Care Centers in Southern Africa. So far we have paid for the construction and support of the Tsakelani Orphan Day Care Center in Soshanguve. We find monthly sponsors for each child the center serves. We have also committed to find sponsors for the children at ILB (Isubila Lya Bana, which means "Hope for the Children") Mansa Center in Mansa, Zambia.
