Street-children

VaCaPa Kinderplan VZW is trying to prevent that the children, who the association helps today, gonna be street-children. If there's a want of money in the family, father or mother loose their job or are unemployed (have no job), the children have to go on the street to beg for money so they can go to school, or worse, they have to quit going to school to find work. If they get no job, a street-gang is not far away. The children gonna be stealing to get some food and sniffing glue or benzine (petrol) to forget that they are hungry. Often they end by going to jail or to be killed on the street. The perpetrators of the murders are still unknown! It's very difficult for these street-children to go back to normal life again. So to prevent is better than to heal!
