I went to visit the Thusanani premises...OMG I was blown away! They have superb facilities with support from other NGO's in the same building. Even though their facilities are great, it's useless without people. They have some permanent staff, but desperately need more professions to help with the assessments and training. They are doing SUCH AN EXCELLENT job...WOW!!
Things I can see that are needed are more hands to help with moving stuff around and things like fixing up thir shed, more toys to be able to give away to children and children homes, Professional marketing support (current marketing is superb, but support from a professional marketing company would be of SUCH great benefit.
I was almost in tears when I heard some of the stories...and that includes the GOOD ones! wow! So many children's lives have been changed already...and the list of children needing help just gets longer and longer as more people find out about Thusanani...Dave Coates
