Fact: 11 million children live in poverty.

Child support grants

When poverty strikes a family, the youngest members become its immediate victims. Poverty denies children their right to education, healthcare, proper nutrition, safe water and sanitation. Poverty is inherited. Poor children are likely to pass poverty onto the next generation, perpetuating the poverty cycle.

In South Africa, the child support grant has been praised as one of the country’s major contributions to reducing child poverty. The monthly grant of R190 gives income support for children between the ages of birth and 14 whose parents or caregivers earn below the minimum wage of R1,200 a month.

UNICEF works with the Government to expand the reach of the child support grant so that many more children can be lifted out of poverty.

Take Note
* 7,2 million children benefit from the child support grant.
* Children between the age of 15 and 17 are not eligible for the child support grant, leaving them without a safety net.
* Two million children live in backyard shacks in townships, with poor sanitation, water and other basic services.
* 4,5 million children live in overcrowded homes, with risks for sexual abuse.
