Children in the park.

The leaders of different NPO's in the Woodstock, Salt River area bring kids together to enjoy the day in the Woodstock Peace Garden. The children came from District Six, Salt River, and Woodstock. They first gather as one group before they break up in their original groups with their leaders. The idea was to explain to them the reason for the gathering. The social ills of society affected these children, e.g. homelessness, poverty, substance abuse, and hunger. 
Parents of some children came along to see what the children are doing. They were also there to help the leaders to control the children and to act as security guards. It was good to see that they are interested in the well-being of their children. This act helped to secure the children are in a safe space.
This networking act was an excellent result of the activity with the children. Leaders joined hands to make the day a day that the children will not forget. The leaders are from left to right: Ndoxy (Cissie Goal House), Gerald Louw (Golden Anchor Solid Rock Foundation), Sheradia Brown (Circle of Compassion) and Khanyisani Mathanda (Golden Anchor Solid Rock Foundation) Absent in the picture is Hester Bergh (Donor)
