A CENTENARY message from our patron
Dear Friends
Congratulations to Cape Town Child Welfare as the organization Celebrates 100 years of caring for the children of Cape Town. CTCW has wonderful track record of caring for and nurturing our children and has been the prototype for many other organizations that care for children in our country.
My dream is for our communities to become more compassionate, more caring, willing to share and take responsibility for the vulnerable. This is God’s dream for us all. Cape Town Child Welfare is bringing us closer to its realisation.
Thank you to the staff and volunteers, thank you to all the generous supporters and sponsors. I pray that this work so well begun and sustained will continue to help our children for many years to come.
God bless you
Desmond M Tutu Archbishop Emeritus
