4. “Our children are the rock on which our future will be built, our greatest asset as a nation. They will be the
leaders of our country, the creators of our national wealth, those who care for and protect our people.”
Nelson Mandela
There are 18.3 million children in South Africa, with 4 million in
KwaZulu-Natal. A disproportionate number of our children (68%)
live in poverty.
Children constitute 39% of South Africa’s population and giving
them the opportunities for optimal development during childhood
dramatically improves their chances of becoming productive,
creative and fulfilled adults. (Feed the Babies Fund, 2009)
Initiative Overview
The Lee Bromley Golf Foundation (LBGF) is a “Grass Roots” initiative and “First Touch” program that introduces golf to
