Sunshine leavers celebration

As the end of the academic year approaches, the Sunshine Centre staff organised a leavers' celebration to equip our former street boys for their next step in life.


During an emotional day, the boys were given professional advice on how to manage job interviews, they were reminded of the importance of living their lives God's way, and they formed themselves into an alumni group  to encourage each other.

Many of the boys have been with us since they were rescued from the streets in 2004 when the Sunshine Centre first opened.

Now, as young adults they are fully equipped to move into the world of work, knowing that the Sunshine staff and their Sunshine brothers are still with them for help and advice.

One aim of the newly formed alumni group is to come back to talk to and encourage the younger boys who are still at the Centre. They are compelling role models that show what a street boy can achieve!
