While spending several months in South Africa, I had the most amazing oppurtunity to help a very special organization. The organizations name speaks for itself “Siyanakekela,” Zulu for “We Care.” Located in the heart of the Umlazi township on the East Coast of Durban, South Africa, the small yet significant organization raises through crime and poverty to aid the hunger of Aids/HIV inflicted children.
Working closely with Cooper Browning, an American amassador of goodwill for the organization, I had the chance to experience the hardships and triumphs of such a remarkable foundation. Browning, a US student with independant studies of Nutrition and Aids/HIV, discovered the organization while persuing her degree at Global College. She worked alongside the organization for 4 months. In her quest to expand the organization’ s mission to relieve hunger, upon her return to America, shes has since brought the cause to international attention.
Browning will soon work to develope a US non-profit oragnization that will aid Siyanakekela and her sister organizations. The Spirrs Team will work closely with its progress. We are proud supporters of Siyanakekela and Cooper Browning in their efforts to end hunger amoung the growing Aids Orphans population in Umlazi, South Africa.
Please stayed tuned for more posted on the developing organization and my life changing experince.
