“By building something decent for people not only restores their dignity but also gives them a chance to rebuild their lives.  As an educational psychologist I was taken aback when I saw the truly bad conditions that children in informal settlements live in.

These children and youth live in extreme poverty and conditions where there is violence.  This stunts their growth and they do not reach their full potential.  They cannot study if there is no food and electricity.  In winter the weather conditions are worse because their homes are flooded and it leads to illnesses such as tuberculosis” Quinton Adams, The Shackbuilder

https://www.facebook.com/dianaferruspages/ Diana Ferrus (born 29 August 1953, Worcester, Western Cape) is a South African writer, poet and storyteller of mixed Khoisan and slave ancestry. Her work is published in Afrikaans and English. Ferrus leads writing workshops in Cape Town while working as an administrator at the University of the Western Cape. Ferrus is best known for her poem about Sarah Baartman, a South African woman taken to Europe under false pretenses and paraded as a curiosity. She wrote the poem in 1998 while studying at Utrecht University. The popularity of this poem is widely believed to be responsible for the return of Bartmann's remains to South Africa. The poem was published into a French law. Ferrus is a founder of the Afrikaans Skrywersvereniging (ASV), Bush Poets, and Women in Xchains. She has a publishing company called Diana Ferrus Publishers and has co-edited and published a collection of stories about fathers and daughters. Diana is currently editing three poetry collections. One in Afrikaans, a tribute to her dad and one in English. In fact she is editing another Afrikaans collection called “My naam is Februarie”, a dedication to her slave ancestry.
