In 2011 we, Theo and Angie, moved from Pretoria to our new home in Hermanus. One of the most beautiful spot in South Africa but also a place where the inequality between the several groups in our society can't be clearer.<\/p>\n

We had a good life in Pretoria, our selves and our three sons. We were aware that we were privileged on so many levels.<\/p>\n

That is why we founded Sparklekids, we want to help the less privileged and bring hope.<\/p>\n

It is a journey and one thing leads to another. We met so many good people on our way and we are thankful for every one a walked with us on our road and helped in any way possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
