This is a program which focuses on advocating for basic human rights in the communities we support. We have found ourselves remedying issues ranging from fighting for the right to running water at a school in Soweto, forcing government departments to assist families living with mental illness or disability, to the most horrific of all: children who have been trafficked or abducted.
Assisting NPO's
We have been assisting NPO’s in the Soweto area who turn to us for help with issues that they find difficult to problem solve.
Our introduction to Protea South squatter camp was in 2014 when we began working with an organisation of social workers. We shared ideas and skills, and assisted in raising funds, an throwing huge Christmas parties, for many of their beneficiaries. In 2021 we began assisting 2 very capable sisters in Protea South squatter community who are a lifesaver for their community. We helped them to establish themselves as an NPO. They rescue animals in the area and are called on for just about everything.
We rewired their home, waterproofed it and painted it. We installed a huge jungle gym outside and fitted a solar geyser and pump which gave them hot water for the first time. Today they feed over 1200 hungry people weekly, as well as running afternoon programs for youth in the area. They are growing from strength to strength.
