Sindi's story

Sindi age 5 – a beautiful little girl who lives with her mother and 3 other siblings near Afrika Tikkun’s Mfuleni centre. Little Sindi was diagnosed with a lung condition that requires her to use a breathing aid 24/7. When Sindi joined our Afrika Tikkun ECD programme, our Empowerment Case Administrators encouraged her family to join the support group for parents of children with disabilities.

Michael Walter Scott legacy

Our father, Michael Walter Scott (1932-2019), had a long and prosperous relationship with the Lubner family both in South Africa and England. When he passed away, dad requested that his children decide which charities should benefit from his legacy. We all agreed that a South African charity would sit most comfortably with us.Over the years, we had become aware that Bertie Lubner had established a charity to help disadvantaged South Africans. So we researched Afrika Tikkun more fully, as an acknowledgement to my father’s connection with the Lubner family. In additiion to the excellent website, Bertie’s grand daughter Daniella, who we know through equestrian cirlces, also spoke informatively about the charity. We found the ethos and breadth of Afrika Tikkun to be very inspiring. Its diverse, all-round and positive programs appealled to us. The process of donating was also easy as Afrika Tikkun is a charity registered in the United Kingdom. We could not be more delighted to have chosen Afrika Tikkun and feel a little bit of our dad rests productively helping South Africans, especially at this time of Covid 19. Sue, Greg and Mike
