Mylife is a youth development organisation and have achieved some of the best results of any organisation, including these true stories:
A child that was labelled a street child for 12 years was sent to be trained to be a chef by Jamie Oliver, and now works in a top Cape Town restaurant.
Another former "street child" is now a Head of department in the film industry and owns his own house.
