100 Years of change for children
5 Jun 2019
Thanks to supporters like you, we’ve been doing whatever it takes for children in need for 100 years, reaching over one billion children! It all began in 1919, when our founder, Eglantyne Jebb, launched a pioneering campaign to save suffering children across war- torn Europe.

It’s quite a mouthful: the Youth Entrepreneurship and Socio Economic Empowerment Project – which is why we often refer to it by its acronym, YESEEP.

Thank you for helping us to take action for children – all year round!
5 Jun 2019
It seems that we say it every year: time flies! It’s hard to believe that it’s already April, signalling that the first quarter of 2019 is already coming to a close. But what’s far from over are the aims we have yet to accomplish for children.

‘Children first’ – in policy and practice
5 Jun 2019
It’s amazing how, when your children are no longer in school or at university, you realise just how much our lives revolved around terms and holidays. It’s just one simple example of how our children form the basis of our decisions; and of course, that’s how it should be.

Literacy is a golden gateway to education at school and beyond
5 Jun 2019
It’s concerning and tragic that just over three million South Africans remain illiterate, according to Statistics South Africa. As Walt Disney once very wisely said: ‘There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate’s loot on Treasure Island.’
