MaAfrika Tikkun

MaAfrika Tikkun is a charitable organization based in South Africa whose approach is to get right to the heart of destitute communities by working with orphans and vulnerable children, giving them vital care and support and the skills needed to succeed in life.

For the past seven years, Belron® through MaAfrika Tikkun has supported people in three communities: Orange Farm, Diepsloot and Alexandra. More than 800,000 families live in these communities which are plagued with poverty, a high rate of unemployment, violence and lack of infrastructure

By working within communities - helping them to develop the infrastructure necessary for their long-term well being, MaAfrika Tikkun can ensure that in the future the communities will be the ones providing assistance to those around them; passing on their skills, providing care to orphans and vulnerable children, the elderly and creating economic stability.

MaAfrika Tikkun has created sustainable community centres that provide a wide range of programmes for children and their families. With the continued support of Belron®, MaAfrika Tikkun provides home based care, feeding programmes, after-school activities for the youth, life skills training and emergency relief. Much of the money from 2008 was allocated towards the building of a new centre for Orphans and vulnerable children in Alexandra and the rest towards the Youth Development programmes.

This year the money that Belron® raises will not only help with the struggle against hunger but will also ensure that everyone receives improved health care, education and the chance of a better future. The funding from this year will enable each community to uplift themselves from poverty and disease.

Together we can make a difference!
