A Basic Income Grant of as little as R100 per month will make a huge difference to the lives of those who have nothing. That is the message that children at a presentation organised by the Alliance for Children's Entitlement to Social Security (ACESS) sent to representatives from government and other concerned institutions. The presentation was attended by delegates from NGOs, human rights organisations and the media. Although it was organised for government, only a handful of officials attended. A common thread in the presentation was how a lack of income in homes prevents children from accessing an education.
