Introduction
Homelessness impacts on both the individual and the community. By turning someone's life around, you are able to assist their children, their family and friends, and the extended community being impacted by homelessness. Published figures show that over 14,000 people sleep rough on the streets of Cape Town, we know this number is much likely to be much higher and since COVID-19 and with our energy crisis and job loss resources show a huge spike in homelessness.
Report
Graduates from the programme leave the programme by looking for and securing an independent job. With the rise in homelessness since the pandemic, we have also seen a need for a new shelter to assist and provide training to an increased number of individuals. We have managed to raise $2900 for this project so far.
