The Wahazabe

Spent a day on the back roads going to visit a bushmen tribe. They live outside with little to no shelter in a very traditional structure. They are currently at risk for losing the land they use to hunt Vervet and gather roots and plants for eating. They live completely off the land and the government is selling off the area for development. Some people associated with the school are trying to help protect their rights, as well as make arrangements for some of the children to attend the boarding school that is currently being planned for St. Judes.

On our visit, we took blankets and some food staples for the women and children. The young boy to the right is about the age where he may be able to come to the school when the boarding section is open.
