Hot Cares Steps In to Support Sun Sun's Journey of Development


In the heart of Benoni, a beacon of hope shines brightly through the work of Ana Pinto le Roux, the founder of iKhaya da Luz Children’s Home. For over 15 years, Ana has been a pillar of support for countless children, providing them with a loving home and a sense of belonging. Among these children is Sun Sun, a remarkable young girl who has faced the challenges of life with unwavering resilience.

Born with Cerebral Palsy, Sun Sun’s journey has been marked by adversity, including a leg length discrepancy that affects her mobility. Despite the hardships, her spirit has never been broken, thanks to the unwavering love and care she has received from Ana and the nurturing environment of iKhaya da Luz.

Hot Cares, moved by Sun Sun’s story and the incredible work of Ana, has stepped forward to support Sun Sun’s medical needs. They have committed to covering the costs of her podiatrist consultation and the custom soles she requires, up to the value of R25,000. This intervention is crucial as it will not only improve her physical health by reducing her limp and preventing long-term issues like scoliosis, but it will also have a profound positive impact on her emotional well-being and self-esteem.

The donation from Hot Cares is a testament to the power of community and the impact that support can have on an individual’s life. By empowering Ana in her mission to change lives, Hot Cares is ensuring that Sun Sun continues to thrive and have her needs met, paving the way for a brighter future.

As the story of Sun Sun and the work of iKhaya da Luz Children’s Home continues to unfold, the support from organisations like Hot Cares reminds us of the importance of coming together to support those in need. With the right care and support, Sun Sun’s journey is a powerful reminder that even the toughest challenges can be overcome.
