The ChosiChosi Book Club in Philippi is a safe haven for young souls to escape their struggles. Established in 2019 by Sindeka Mandoyi, the club aims to nurture young minds, instill hope and resilience, and provide a beacon of light in a place often marginalized and consumed by adversity. Despite facing challenges such as a lack of reading resources in the children’s mother tongue, Sindeka is committed to her vision for the future of the club, which includes a larger space and opportunities to instill hope and resilience in the community.
