Episode 50

Content Warning: There are brief mentions of violence, murder, and suicide in this episode.

You're about to embark on a journey to the heart of eSwatini (formerly Swaziland) with our extraordinary guests, Francis and Nquobile to learn all about their dedication to improving lives some of the most impoverished areas of eSwatini. Despite the lack of resources and a struggling healthcare system, they continue to support disabled children, the elderly, and those who are hungry.

We talk about the varied nature of their work, doing what they must in lieu of a health system with resources: they even provide transport and wheelchairs, build houses, teach caring tips, and locate families for children who have been orphaned. We talk about the grim state of affairs in the work they do, but also the excellent work they do in helping the community towards self-sufficiency via the teaching of care giving at home, and linking orphans with the elderly of the community.

This episode is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a call to action to lend a hand to those in need. Join us for this riveting conversation.
