Help Sanet Basson

Sanet was taken into the children’s home in March 2017. In 2018, her grade-10 year, she developed a brachial cyst. Frequent inflammation caused a lot of pain and discomfort. In addition, it also had a considerable influence on her self-esteem. Our children are all dependent on the state for medical care, but Sanet could not get help at the state hospital at that time. In her matric year (2020) we finally got private help through Jacaranda FM’s Good Morning Angels and Operation Healing Hands. The cyst was removed before her matric farewell and final exams. She passed matric with flying colours and gained university admission. As a result of the media exposure her story received, she became the recipient of a private scholarship to further her studies. Sanet is studying education at the University of Pretoria and has almost finished her second year.

The children’s home became my home. As soon as I strayed from the path, the children’s home staff not only disciplined me like parents, but also took my hand and redirected me to the right path. The home is not only the place of safety; people there see your potential and help you to the best of their ability to make progress in life. There is a saying, ‘It takes a village to raise a child’. I know that I, and everyone else at Abraham Kriel Children’s Home, were very fortunate to have had a community who helped each other to raise us. The children’s home was my greatest gift from God.
