Azibalule G. is in Grade 5 at Christel House South Africa. She lives with her mother and little brother in Jungle Walk, a densely populated zone within the Langa Township in Cape Town. It is a poor and dangerous place to grow up. Adri Marais, CEO of Christel House South Africa, sees the challenges kids face. “We are a gang-infested, extremely violent society,” she says. “How we deal with it is one of the major keys in unlocking the potential that our students have.” Christel House South Africa offers a safe place for children. Azibalule’s humble background fuels her desire to overcome her circumstances. She dreams to be a lawyer or a pilot. “Christel House teachers are kind,” Azibalule says. “They do their best to teach me new things.”
