A Wedding Couple with BIG hearts for Ikhaya Introducing Karen and Ruaraidh and their upcoming wedding:The reason we have chosen Ikhaya Likababa is a quite simple. We have everything we need in life and both felt very strongly that we didn't want any gifts. However, we knew that people would still buy us things so we thought we would direct the money to a worthwhile cause. We are both just ordinary people, but our hearts break when we see need and suffering. It is very overwhelming when you think of the scale of the problems out there but I have always felt that you have to start somewhere. As the saying goes 'it's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness'. That's ...

Update: A Review of the Fundraiser Held on June 30, 2011 in Oakville, ON Canada Eunice, Lynn and Gerry Son Kee - Event OrganizersA few words from Lynn Son Kee: This was truly an amazing event which poured forth such blessings from the generous hearts of those who attended and helped make a difference in the lives of the orphans of Ikhaya LikaBaba! When the inspiration to throw a fundraiser dinner and dance first came to me I trembled with trepidation since I had never embarked on trying to organize such a big event before. I shared this idea with my parents Gerry and Eunice and my dad (Gerry) set me on course right away with confidence saying that both he and my mother would help me organize everything! I truly do not know what ...

Feedback from our First Educational Toy Drive....a resounding success!!!! iKhaya’s First Educational Toy Drive!Posted on March 6, 2012by Danielle E. The first four years of a child’s life are instrumental in social and intellectual growth. This is the time they begin to problem solve and develop fine and gross motor skills, if given the opportunity. Children learn these skills in play, but not every toy promotes these skills! Stacking cups and shape sorting toys are ideal for problem solving. Where does this shape belong, and how do I get it into that hole? As children experiment with trial and error, they learn how things work. In the process, they are stimulating their brains and awaking areas that have previously been dormant.The First Educational Toy ...

Brand new lawnmower for iKhaya! iKhaya LikaBaba are now the proud owners of a brand new Yamaha M110 Petrol Lawnmower,generously donated by Len and Haig's Mower and Chainsaw Centre CC, Empangeni. We are so grateful for this donation as we have a large expanse of thick grass to cut on a weekly basis. Due to the heavy rains and hot conditions our grass has FLOURISHED and grown quickly making it difficult to keep up with the cutting. This is a 'machine' and is a pleasure to use. It goes a LOT quicker now and we are very impressed with this mower.A huge Thank you to Len and his Team from Haig's. We appreciate you kindness and huge sense of support.
