The Dwaleni community was blessed with a new life centre and the new building is now fully operational. A much needed creche for 40+ children has been opened, and is charging only those who can afford it as a way to be self-sustaining and to serve their community. The Life Centre provides a hot meal to over 150 orphaned and vulnerable children. Umalusi is focusing on investing into the children through reading programs and equipping their care workers to enable them to teach critical skills.
