U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton recently took an 11 day trip to Africa, visiting seven countries and focusing on a variety of issues.

Christel House South Africa was invited to participate with four other organizations in a marketing expo at Cape Grace Hotel and Commodore Hotel in the V & A Waterfront, Cape Town. Groups were given the opportunity to showcase their mission and also to display various items for sale.

Clinton visited with our staff along with more than 100 members of her delegation. She took a keen interest, bought various hand-made items and thanked everyone for supporting such a worthy cause that makes a visible impact in the lives of those in need.
