ETHEMBENI CHILDRENS HOME
















Dans la vie, TOUT LE MONDE VEUT ÊTRE A AIMÉ, ce qui est la vie sans amour. À la fin du jour quand vous allez au lit la nuit, vous savez que l'amour montré à toi par la personne la plus étroite dans votre vie est ce qui te fait la fin vous des yeux et rêve"-Swoosh"

In life, EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE LOVED, What is life without Love. At the end of the day when you go to bed at night, You know that the love shown to you by the closest person in your life is what makes you close you eyes and dream"

Swoosh0018.com visited the Ethembeni Childrens home on Saturday. Myself, Zaheera, Raeesa and Sameer conducted an initial visit and took them some clothes and toys. Make no mistake we will be back there in two months time.If you look at my intro,makes you wonder perhaps. But hey as I said I speak my mind. We all know that to be loved is the greatest feeling in the world, Heck i know, Ive been there, Some of us are there and we all know that the special fuzzy feeling inside of your belly by the closest person to you, be it your parents, your girlfriend, your wife or even your kids is probably the greatest sensation that you will ever feel.

When you know that there is somebody out there thats constantly watching your back, thats constantly out there to hold you when you down, thats constantly out there to nurse you when you sick and thats constantly out there to put their arms around you and kiss you gently when you are asleep."You want somebody who will stand by your side and give you support. Somebody who will share the rest of your life, your innermost thoughts and your intimate details. Now from a personal stand point and my feelings, It was so sad to see so many babies out there, They hugged the team, fell asleep in their arms and never wanted us to leave. The babies Eyes said it all, Unbelievable, You had to be there to see it. And I tell you guys, the staff are doing an amazing job, God bless them, But these kids will turn three and then be moved to a different house.

Thats why my point about individual love. They and many others need it all the time. I look at my nephew and my friends and families kids, They have love, These kids will never have parents and you know as a parent your child completes you. For instance there was this kid Musa......in the room housing 6-12 month kids. He layed there in his cot on all fours, Smiling all the time, Everytime we came back he was smiling....Then next door in the same age group there was this kid Tandile, The guy was high fiving me from his cot, I noticed that he had a scar underneath his chin...So i naturally enquired. He underwent an op when he was six months old.....Now fathom this, You undergo an Op, You a baby, What awaits you , No Mum with hot Food, No family............Theres more, A month ago they found a baby in a toilet, abandoned...then they found a baby in the park...............

Its WINTER guys, Lets push it......Lets Race for Charity in Winter and make some kids sleep snug and warm hope our videos and pictures will touch your heart as it did to mine............Because at the end of the day there is that moment when you go to sleep at night,and all the phoniness is behind you and all the crud of the world is swept aside,that you wake up and say,"THIS IS REALITY"

Il say it openly on my site, My main ambition is to protect and help kids that have been abused physically and sexually. I will die trying to protect this world from such a nightmare...Recently we reviewed 3 cases of abuse , both sexual and physical to kids. They have no one to turn to, and my foundation will die trying to make their world a better place..And I pray every night that kids in the future will not have to experience such torment And whats so sad is they are so small, little Mohammed Alis, chubby boys, small girls playing with Dolls. I and my team will try to make an inch of a difference to these cute babies. I will die trying................And we will try to make heaven a place on earth

Ethembeni Chlidrens home came into being in 1995 due to the need to accommodate abandoned HIV/AIDS infected and affected babies. It provides care for up to 60 children from birth to 3 years. All Children in need of care are admitted irrespective of their health status. Children who have been abandoned, removed from abusive situations or removed from carers who are not able to adequately meet the needs of a child, are placed at Ethembeni by the Commissioner of Child Welfare. Ethembeni is very fortunate to have the services of volunteers who provide formal professional age appropriate stimulatory programs throughout the week.Over the past four years, Ethembeni has transformed its services to the children in its care by involving volunteers more efficiently, effectively introducing stimulatory programs, promoting and encouraging shorter periods of residency for the children by assisting to have children returned to their communities, foster or adoptive parents and enduring a regular income by renting out a portion of the building

So I encourage everyone out there, If theres anything from Baby Bibs, Dummys, bottles blankets, shawls, food, baby toys, clothes, money....Anything....We will be visiting there in 2 months or less. Email me :swoosh0018@gmail.com if you wanna be included on the mailing list and activity listings or if you want to contribute any of the above.Trust me, its needed, Baby Blankets, Warm Blankets. Lets keep them warm, Winter growers, Its cold when rooms are big. These babies have nobody, they yearn for personal love and interaction. Lets make that difference for them.Lets SWOOSH it up*I have attached some pics with reference to a latest project we working on, and thats assisting burnt victims. With the new concept "Swoosh'ing it Up" underway we hope to make some cross roads in this venture. Its still in planning stages, But we hope to get there soon.I have attached some pics to the sort of kids and people we aim to assist. We will die trying
