Story
The therapy team at NHS Dolphin Centre, Tunbridge Wells would like to give 20 street children from Lubumbashi, DR Congo, the chance to be rescued from the streets and receive an education that will change their lives and give them a future. Please will you help us help them.
We are supporting Kimbilio (Congo Children Trust) as they work tirelessly with children living on the streets of Lubumbashi, helping them to overcome their personal challenges and begin to build a future with hope. To find out more please visit www.kimbiliocongo.org.
Don't miss viewing the YouTube Sky News report highlighting the plight of cobalt-mining boys who, thanks to Kimbilio, are now being fed, educated and looked after by Kimbilio. A moving wonderful story highlighting one aspect of the invaluable work of Kimbilio. See Special Report: Revisiting the cobalt-mining boys.
