Sophie’s Creche gets Chairs!

Not every classroom in Africa comes with chairs or tables. For Sophie getting chairs is a big deal. She doesn’t want the kids growing up eating their food on the floor. She doesn’t want them to think that is normal.

She wants them to learn to eat at tables, sitting on chairs with dishes and cutlery. Sophie wants to make sure that what she went through as a child during the apartheid doesn’t happen to these kids. She and her family were not allowed to sit at a chair or a table. Her parents lived on a farm where they were laborers and those were the rules during the apartheid.

Sophie hopes that having chairs and tables for these kids early in life, will give them "a seat at the table" wherever they go.
