“I think many expats share an overwhelming desire to give back to their host country.  I know I did upon arriving in Johannesburg nearly three years ago.  I believe Diepsloot Youth Project have a responsibility to give back to the country that is hosting Diepsloot Youth Project and, if possible, to leave it better than how Diepsloot Youth Project found it.  In Johannesburg, the opportunity to give back is easy because the need is so incredibly overwhelming.  The challenge is to figure out where to give your time and talents and how to maximise your impact in the short amount of time you have in this home away from home.
