Homeless
Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010A small tornado ripped through the valley of a thousand hills just before Christmas leaving the residents of the houses and shacks terrified in the middle of the night. Many of the roofs flew off in one piece and dumped far away. Many of our sponsor children were the victims here and have been left utterly homeless and possessionless. The photo below shows what is left of the family room after the winds died down. This community sits just a 15 minute drive down the road from Hillcrest, Durban. One of the most affluent parts of the most affluent country on the continent of Africa. We were here before and after the TV cameras came to film the damage caused by the storm. Incidently since then, we havent seen any outside assistance whatsoever despite being there daily ourselves.
