Feeding Rehoboth’s vulnerable children

An unemployed Rehoboth-based community activist has built a kindergarten that shelters, feeds and educates neglected children, some of whom have been abandoned by their parents.

John Khachab (58) built El-Roi kindergarten in 2016 after witnessing cases of child neglect at Rehoboth.

He says he has even seen children at shebeens drinking alcohol – some alone and some with their parents.

Because of this, he decided to build a kindergarten and shelter.

Three children who are eight, nine and 10 years old are currently housed at the kindergarten.
