How It Began
In 2008, Dr. Jacqualyn F. Green visited the Home of Hope in South Africa. That visit began a journey that has changed lives and inspired hope over a decade. Since then, CI ABSW has contributed over $10,000 to children who are orphans and their families. The orphanage has responded to numerous needs by providing food parcels, haircuts, clothing, shoes, skills and independence training, utilities, repairs, staff salaries, and student tuition. We even supported their first student enrolled in University. Home of Hope Director, Gab’sile Khoza, stated: “CI ABSW has emerged as a beacon of hope, bringing joy to over a thousand individuals in the community of Tembisa.” CI ABSW’s 2024 Campaign Goal is $1,000.
