We wish to appeal to the parents and caregivers of eligible children to come forward and register for the child support grant. Giving children the best start in life requires us to provide them with good quality health care, proper nutrition, and early learning, as well as safe and intellectually stimulating surroundings. Research findings confirm that investment in children in the form of social grants has continued to increase their access to health care, balanced nutrition and early learning stimulation, thereby improving their overall wellbeing.
