Cavorting in the Communities
Yesterday found me navigating the bush with David Khoza, community outreach manager with Pride ‘n Purpose, in Rachel…a small “bakkie” (pick-up truck) operated by hydrogen fuel cells that was donated by Gregg Campbell (founder of P ‘n P) to expedite P ‘n P’s work in the communities.
We visited a few “crèches” (nursery schools) to deliver e’Pap and inquire with the teachers of the status of affairs. Well, David met with the teachers whilst I was entertained & tackled by hordes of toddlers: songs, dancing & high fives ensued….at times, a few ran their fingers through my hair.
I was at Deyani Creche when lunch was served. The children obediently queued in line, washed their hands in a plastic dish placed near the buffet and were provided a seemingly heaping plate of rice and chicken bits & sauce.
David & I dropped by Phumzile’s home, as she has asked for guidance and funding to open a “spazza” (small convenience store, produce stand, etc). I will guide Phumzile through the process of writing a business proposal, laying out plans for building a spazza in her front yard, creating relationships with neighboring vendors (farmers, etc) and open for business.
