Mama Pumla Gigi looks after 125 children. “Let the children come to me,” is Pumla’s approach to life. She is a warm and caring person who has done so much with the little she has. The children in her care are educated, fed and entertained all day, everyday. The centre will never turn a parent away who cannot afford the small fee.
