What a great honor! World famous South African singer Lira came to visit KCC this month. While she enjoyed watching the kids dance she spoke about her life and the importance of KCC.
Invited by one of our supporters, Kea Modise, Lira came to the Kgomotso Children Centre for one afternoon. A few of KCC's girls had rehearsed a dance for this occassion which they now performed. Lira was impressed and thanked them for dancing. Afterwards, Lira spoke to the children and staff telling them about her life, how she grew up and how she became a world famous singer. She complimented the staff for taking care of the children and adolescents and for giving them the support that she never had as a kid herself. She was very much impressed with what KCC had achieved so far and thanked everyone for the hard work they put in building KCC.
She even sang her songs "Feel Good" and "Mali". In the end, she picked a few kids asking them what they love. She spontaneously made up a song out of their words which was eventually sung by all kids and staff.
For all of KCC, children and adults, it was a very special afternoon that they will never forget. We are very thankful for Lira to have been at our centre.
