Welcome to MylifE
The MylifE Concept is a three stage holistic healing program built on the African concept of UBUNTU. We work from the belief that it takes a village to raise a child. For that reason our healing Villages will be a place for both empowered and vulnerable youth. The goal is to create a local solution to a Global crisis that now sees 150 million children living on our streets in utter hopelessness.
The MylifE concept explains how operating on the frontlines of hopelessness, in close co-operation with our marginalized youth, has lead us to a unique healing concept with sustainable outcomes, the youth themselves.
Our understanding has created the next step in our project - a Pilot Model for eco development which will skill youth to be the caregivers of the future and prevent millions of children from landing up on our streets.
The context of children-headed households, as a result of parent deaths from HIV/AIDS, also applies here. We live in a reality where our “parents” are dying and the burden of 6000 children being orphaned A DAY in South Africa is being dealt with by extended family and elders.
My Life has been recognized by Nelson Mandela, Winnie Mandela, the Premiere of the Western Cape, representatives of the Dalai Lama, local Ministers for National Government and a host of others as an extremely important venture with global implications and application. |
