Our Vision
To give every homeless and destitute person a second chance in life. Our objective is to ensure that we decrease the number of homeless and destitute people living on the streets in Durban.
According to the Human Sciences Research Council’s (HSRC) survey done in 2016, there are approximately 4000 homeless people living in Durban. We want to assist these individuals in becoming contributing members of society.
Our Solution
We evaluate each person’s situation with numerous interviews and find out about their past, current situation and start working towards a plan for their future. During this process mentorship is key, as we aim to upskill them based on their ability and assist them with job opportunities. We guide each individual in becoming financially sustainable members of society. We also ensure that accommodation is acquired and follow up continuously to continue our mentorship.
Our Impact
We believe that we can ensure that the cycle of poverty is broken and their children can enjoy a family with a hope and a future, with the ability to make better choices. Through the restoration of family values and implementation of skills development courses, unemployed and uneducated people are enabled to earn an income and provide for themselves to become contributing members of the community.
