Bana ba Letsatsi children visiting Maun Educational Wildlife Park

Maun charitable organization Bana ba Letsatsi (in English, Children of the Sun) has a new web site. The organization, established in 2003 in response to the growing number of children on the streets in Maun, offers a safe environment for children who have dropped out of school, and programmes for children and their families. Maun, considered the gateway for Okavango tourism, is a growing centre: the population of Ngamiland increased from 54,0000 in 1971 to more than 125,000 in 2001.
