The World often states that children are Humanity’s Future, and it’s right, they are tomorrow’s adults. When I look at Angolan’s street kids, I often think that this country doesn’t have much of a future. It has been MgM’s goal, for the last 4 years, to try to change this perspective.

After many years of working in rural Angola, through Demining, MgM was able to learn a lot of the culture of the different provinces and also see the major problems affecting each of them. Children are the ones mostly affected by these issues, due to the lack of infrastructure to help them grow safely. Demining had a huge impact as we were able to create confidence and safety for infrastructures to be built. This brought connection to previously isolated areas through roads and safe travel. This then led to the building of schools, health care centers and food as fields were safe to be cultivated.
