SPONSOR A CHILD or TEEN: You can help to send a child or a teen on a holiday of a lifetime!
If you're reading this you've probably been on many holidays in your life and have enjoyed at least one beach holiday. Most of the children
or teens in Sweetwaters have never been on a holiday let alone experienced the joy of being at the seaside. Each year, therefore, we aim to take 100 children/teens from Sweetwaters (aged between 9-11
& 12 - 17) on a beach holiday camp.
In the last five years we have been able to fund 11 iThemba Camps which
have been enjoyed by about 450 children/teens in total. In 2011 we hope to
offer another two camps and have already found sponsorship for 20
children. We are presently looking for funding for a further 80 children/teens.
The impact on the children's lives is unmistakable and everlasting,
please help us to touch these children's lives again.
At the camps, the children or teens spend their time playing games on the beach, swimming, enjoying the water slide and much, much more. We also spend time doing crafts and teaching them about the Bible and God. Many of the children are victims of abuse, neglect and poverty and are able to share their concerns and receive counsel.
Each child receives an item of clothing (for example a tracksuit in winter), a toiletry pack and 2 craft items.
It has been an emotionally-charged experience to see the joy on the faces of these children when they experience the sea for the first time and to hear their screams of delight throughout camp!
