1wThank you for the recent support to our Learn To Play - Ithute Go Tshameka playgroup in the camp. We’re proud to have been among the first responders when asylum seekers were released in June, creating safe play spaces for children and families from the start. Your contribution of toys and resources now will help us continue that work for the children still in the camp.
