 The Bojanala kalafi Programme web page site was created to raise awareness and build interest in our not-for-profit-organisation. The goal of BKP is to strengthen and expand three current under funded North West Province of South Africa non-profit-organisations who all work within vulnerable communities affected/infected by HIV/AIDS and the mitigation of its impact in the face of a sharp, expected rise in South Africa of HIV/AIDS over the next 10 years leading to significant increase which will lead to a social and economic impact of increased morbidity and mortality.  |
 VALUES: Paul A J Weston, born July 1955 in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, married to Ann for the past 31 years, with a son Daniel aged 30. Being out in South Africa on my volunteer visits with the Bojanala kalafi Programmee Projetcs gives me a new sense of who I am. The visits teach me more than I could ever imagine they would. The varying tasks that I get involved with are good and the new roles undertaken have opened up so many new doors which have learnt me about different cultures and how to deal daily with many varying situations. Its totally eye opening, experiencing first hand what the local community has to go through.  Working at the BKP Projects gives me new opportunities of changing someone's life for the better. It opens your eyes to the things that can be done, no matter how small it may be, but that which changes people's situations, and gives them hope for the future. |
 The Bojanala Kalafi Programme component will seek out new grants and fundraising opportunities that will go towards expanding and running: My Home a children and young persons orphanage, Tsholofelo a community based children's day care centre and to strengthening the Tlhokomelo Health Centre a community based clinic, hospice, in-patients and out patients care facility. A major focus of the BKP advocacy is expanding meaningful access to basic needs such as practical support, education, food, medical care and improving awareness to other resources that would give all the Bojanala Kalafi Programme Projects a greater economic independence. In my eyes the management and development of the Bojanala Kalafi Programme is not a game, and certainly not something to give me a sense of power and importance,  it's a cause, it's about the betterment of others. The communities of the Bojanala District may come to us disillusioned, but leave encouraged and enabled to benefit self, family and the whole community: Paul A J Weston |
