Story
Breath of Life is an initiative started in 2009, by the Restore Trust NPO. Mothers that were unable to bring up children had to choose between termination or abandonment. The situation demanded a response and so Breath of Life was launched. The Breath of Life Place of Safety in East London cares for 6 abandoned babies at a time. In partnership with local social workers and adoption agencies, they find these precious children safe, healthy forever families.
Why 1000 days?
Breath Of Life identifies that a child’s first 1000 days are the most crucial. We will be raising funds to contribute to the work they do for every one of their babies’ first 1000 days.
