CHRISTMAS DRIVE

The Christmas Drive covers a variety of areas, and aims to reach as many of the community as possible. The Drive takes place in a weeks period of time with the participating volunteers and organisations attending at their own costs. We bring hope, love, life and laughter to our community and we bring the community the real reason for Christmas, the birth of Jesus Christ! We have so many people along the road, some standing, others sitting having a braai, all colours of the rainbow, one nation.

DOMESTIC WORKERS UNITE PROGRAMME

Domestic Workers Unite is a community-based initiative offering free empowerment training for domestic workers who face increasing safety risks both at work and while travelling. This program equips them with essential knowledge and practical skills in first aid, self-defense, self-care, and handling high-risk situations such as armed robberies.
