MAKAPANSTAD
A LITTLE RURAL COMMUNITY IN THE HEART OF SOUTH AFRICA
Where is Makapanstad exactly you ask? Well, it's a hard one to explain. Not in Gauteng and not really feeling like it should be part of the North West Province. But definitely in South Africa. Ah, our wonderful land of milk and honey. Our country of great opportunity and prosperity. Madiba, democracy and the reminder of what apartheid left behind. Dirt roads, poor electricity and no running water. It's African in every way. A poor community, poorly educated and rife with issues like unemployment, HIV/AIDS, crime, corruption and poverty. However, somewhere underneath all of this hardship the little community of Makapanstad is united through its people. Truly filled with the African spirit - they are bonded by religion, resilience, compassion, courage and above all family.
