I worked in Manenberg on the Cape Flats. Your help will be greatly appreciated by the schools there. The community consist of mostly underprivileged coloureds with an unemployment rate of 80%. You will find a lot of cooperation for any project you want to start. Please call Mr. Edmund Treu: on 0027 21 691 0349. He is a Principal at a primary school there. Thank you, from an ex-South African

DONT give money to the Government - corruption rules
""""""" """"""""""""""" """""""" Churches - political religion!!
HELP EDUCATION develop to a 1st world Standard.
Concentrate on trying to help get the private sector going.
DONT DONATE MEONEY it will be wasted like has happened in the rest of AFRICA - spoonfeeding doesent empower or educate.
