Lighthouse Hope Center/Orphanage in South Africa
South Africa is a beautiful country known for its wildlife and its natural resources. The ground there is rich in minerals and natural metals, and while almost 40% of the gold in the world is mined in South Africa, approximately 50% of the population there lives below the poverty level. According to UNICEF almost 4 million orphans live in this country that is roughly 1/10th the size of the United States. Fish Company was so excited to partner with ICM and build the Lighthouse Hope Center/Orphanage to help care for these sweet babies.
