THE SPRING FEVER ISSUE

Visiting Luleki Sizwe

Last month I posted an article about Luleki Sizwe. An organization that is fighting it's way to make corrective rape more punishable. Well thanks to Lara Aucamp and Maddy Jerry Wolmarans who has organized that we go as a group go visit this organization and see for ourselves what Ndumie Funda, the founder of Luleki Sizwe, has created. This is the event information as posted on Facebook:

"On Saturday the 19th Cape Town Lesbians would like to take a group of girls to visit the Luleki Sizwe shelter for victims of corrective rape.
For more info: http://lulekisizwe.com/

We will be meeting at Mzoli's in Guguletu at 1.45pm.
Directions to Mzoli's:
If you take the Modderdam:
Rd exit off the N2 out of Cape Town, turn left when you get to Klipfontein Rd, Cross the railway line, pass a petrol station on your left, but carry on down Klipfontein.
Turn left at about the second road after the intersection, and you will see Mzoli's meat immediately on your left.

From there we will take a bus (Sponsored by Lara Aucamp) that will take people across to Luleki Sizwe.
The Luleki Sizwe soccer team will also be there and it might be great fun to have a kick around with them :-)
If anyone has anything to donate (clothes, tampons, food, etc) please bring that along. There will be a list sent out shortly with items the girls require.

For more info please contact Maddy at maddy@capetownpride.org

Hope to see you there!"

It would be great if we can get a group together and help out as this is our future.
