Beyond Our Walls – Supporting Neighborhood Families

The impact of the Growing Wise Homeless Centre extends far beyond the beneficiaries living within our Daspoort and Hermanstad properties. Over time, our centre has become known as a "hot spot" for anyone in the public who finds themselves in desperate need of help.

We actively assist families in our surrounding neighborhood who are currently living below the breadline by distributing vital food and clothing. Unfortunately, our financial needs have greatly increased recently as more and more people reach out for emergency assistance. We urgently need financial sponsors to cater to the ever-increasing needs of our destitute citizens. Whether the assistance is financial or in the form of physical goods, community support is the only way we can continue to offer a lifeline to these struggling families.

The Daily Journey to Rehabilitation at Daspoort

At our main shelter located at 446 Herman Street in Daspoort, the Growing Wise Homeless Centre currently accommodates up to 27 homeless and unemployed individuals. Our overarching goal is not just to provide a temporary roof, but to truly rehabilitate these people through the renewal of their self-worth and their faith. We strive to see them become productive members of society who are fully capable of standing on their own two feet again. However, the journey to independence requires daily sustenance and care. To keep the Daspoort shelter running, we must constantly provide food, clothing, toiletries, and bedding. Because we are totally reliant on the community, business, and private sectors for assistance, every single donation of daily essentials helps us maintain a dignified environment for our residents. https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=3958861937522365
