Have tourism and volunteering become blurred? Three foreign volunteers use singing, sweets and skateboarding to reach out to young South African orphans. As relationships develop between these well-meaning young foreigners coming of age on an African tour and the needy children they aim to help, the question emerges as to who benefits most: the backpackers, the orphans or the businessmen who make it all possible? A cynical, often humorous look at volunteering in the 21st century, where the opportunity for a fast buck and a CV tune-up maybe eclipse earnest efforts to “make a difference”.
