The WSPCF is a philanthropic paediatric cardiac foundation which aims to raise the much-needed funds to pay for life-saving surgery for underprivileged children with congenital heart disorders from across Africa.
The cardiac surgery or intervention is undertaken at the Walter Sisulu Paediatric Cardiac Centre for Africa, situated in Netcare Sunninghill Hospital in Johannesburg, as well as at Cape Town’s Netcare Christian Barnard Memorial and Red Cross Children’s Hospitals.
Founded by Dr. Robin Kinsley in 2003, the foundation was established as a living legacy to the late Walter Sisulu and his wife, Albertina.
Ikageng is a community outreach project serving child- and child-assisted households. Assistance is generally provided by grandparents. Ikageng provides food, hygiene products, basic medical supplies, school fees, uniforms, stationery, transportation, clothing, bedding, and linen to each child. In circumstances where children have completed Grade 12, bursaries are sought. If bursaries are not successfully obtained, Ikageng pays for the fees, textbooks, and all other related costs. Ikageng also provides counselling and sport-development programmes. www.ikageng.org.za
