Munsieville is a squatter camp near the city of Krugersdorp in the province of Gauteng, South Africa.
Much is written about the place, both good and bad, but the end result is that somebody has to help these people.
Especially the children, of which there are about 300 plus in the camps.
Each household has a sad story about failure in life and the conditions in the place are horrid. No running water and no electricity. Families live in shacks that they made from corrugated roof sheets. Most of the shacks have no carpets and the floors are bare ground inside the shacks.
This is where The Papillon Foundation comes in, as we regularly drop food, clothing and other goods for the people.
The parents of the little shy girl in the photo have tried to make their shack to seem like some sort of a home, as you can see their efforts in the "garden" at the front of their shack.

it's sad to see that people have to live like this, but it also raise the question for me what is the cause ? no social benefits ? addiction ? how to prevent this from happening again to others ?

Well, what do you do if you go bankrupt? Or if the mines close down? Or if you lose your right arm and you have no savings, or if you have had a stroke, or if you were killed in a car accident and left nothing for your widow and the 5 kids, or, or, or. The fact is my bro that times are tough in our country and the un-employed outnumber the employed. The poor will always be with us! But we try to make things better.

i've bin through bankrupt my self the past 4 years , but we have welfare / social security here , and a law that protects people up to a certain limit when they are unable to pay bills . We are now able to make a fresh start again taking small steps again. We have a system / law that if you are in debt because of bad luck (sick , victim of fraud etc) and not on purpose because you kept shopping :) , the court will put you under surveillance for 3 years at least where you have to show that you are able to take care of things and work , you will get minimum wage , and the rest of the money is saved for debts pay off. after those 3 years if you behaved correctly you get a clean slate i think it's called in English, meaning all debts gone.

Nothing that Papillon can do about it Sir Antonio. The government claims that the squatters were placed there temporarily, as the site is not zoned for inhabitation. Temporarily is a lie, as the people are there for 3 years already.
