About Baobab Sisters
The former South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu has said:
"Baobab Sisters made a tremendous contribution to racial harmony and understanding.
I hope many others will see just how you can touch the hearts ofthose of another race and nationality. They are such charming teachers, teaching South Africans about racial harmony and friendship, breaking down walls of misunderstanding and prejudice."
