Our Current Projects
Pot of Food
This project aims to alleviate hunger, which is a critical marker in disadvantaged communities.
Bread Distribution
Each hub is supplied with a delivery bread loaves twice per month and distributed to those less fortunate.
Caring for the Aged
Ocean View is an area characteristic by high unemployment rates, gangsterism and general poverty levels are high. We aim to assist and support the aged within this community.
Project Compassion
While many of our projects focus on the physical needs of our communities, Project Compassion aims to address the emotional, mental and spiritual needs of communities. This includes visiting the elderly, the sick, the bereaved, those experiencing family challenges and those facing mental health challenges.
SKILLS DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Haircare / Beautician Course
The aim of the project is to train unskilled, unemployed ladies (aged between 23+). It is hoped that these courses will enable them to either be sourced by beauty salons, or more vitally important enable them to become entrepreneurial and start working for themselves in the communities they are located in, where a big market exists.
Sewing-Craft Course
We are currently sponsoring 10 students on this 6-week initiative which take place on the premises of the House of Nazareth in Elsies River. Unemployed females are currently completing their level 1 in Basic Sewing and introduction to pattern making as well as Basic craft design. It is envisaged that many will proceed to the level 2 course where the skills developed will be more advanced.
Welding Course
High unemployment rates, unskilled and unemployable young men are the target of this initiative starting in late October 2024. Candidates selected will be attending a series of practical sessions to learn the skill of welding. It is envisaged that this course will make them more employable but more so also enable them to work for themselves.
