We reached the halfway stage (distance) at lunch today. Only 5850 km to go - which feels and sounds like a lot at this moment. It was another 6 hours (100 kms) bumpy & hot road in 38 degrees ride today. Everyone was exhausted, but finally there is a rest day in sight. We are camping next to the road again and there is a big storm approaching. 
Matla A Bana was founded in 2002 after the rapes of Baby Leratho and Tsepang. A recent report stated that a child is raped in South Africa every 3 minutes. In 80%+ the perpetrator is known to the child and it is said that only 30% of children report crimes against them. MAB reaches more then 5000 children per year with various projects including comfort packs for victims, child-friendly reporting facilities at police stations, training of police officers, debriefing and support.
