History
Bornservant was formed in 2018 after realising that most of the youth as early as 14 years of age are affected by the scourge of drug abuse especially nyaope (heroin) in our various townships. It pained our hearts as an organisation to see what drugs were doing to our youth and how drugs are destroying their lives and they end up losing their lives from drugs abuse due to health challenges. They also end up in prison, because of being in the wrong side of the law to sustain their drug use habit or problem.
