Further information is available on each project on request.
Baby Formula & Nappy Drive
Two of the necessities that we have identified that people are struggling to provide are nappies and infant formula. Please stand with us and help our community. Let us help these innocent little babies have a bottle of milk to fill their little tummies and some clean nappies.

Blanket Drive
We are collecting new or slightly used blankets. There are hundreds of homeless people in Windhoek, Namibia who are forced to live under flyovers, on footpaths, underpasses, bus stops or train stations and spend harsh winters on the streets without even basic clothing or blankets.
Clothing Drive
We are doing a Clothing Drive to collect second hand clothing so that the homeless can keep warm this winter. We accept clothing and shoes for all ages and sizes.
This is a great way to build team spirit at work and closeness with family and friends, as you all unite to help a meaningful cause.
Food Drive
We also accept non-perishable and dry foods to assist those families who do not have anything to eat. We do visit these families to determine their needs.
