TURNING POINT HOME

The Turning Point Home for twilight children was started and sponsored by members of the St George's Anglican Church congregation, situated in Johannesburg, South Africa. The intention was to create a permanent home for children in desperate need whose parents had died of aids or who had come across the border from other African countries and with nowhere else to go.

The home has started small with approximately 8 boys in total living there on a permanent basis. Each child, supervised by house mother Peggy Nyerenda, is fed, encouraged and assisted with school work and given the opportunity to play and develop. The boys have also had the chance to explore their artistic talents. Some of the illustrations they have produced, have been used to make up cards, the proceeds from the sale of which, have helped to raise money for the home.

If anyone feels like contributing to the home they are welcome to contact St George's Church.
