Help Empower 100 Poor Children South African Slum

I hope this report finds you well.

This project is designed to facilitate the education of underprivileged children and includes the provision of school uniforms and shoes, meals and care to vulnerable and at-risk children living in the poverty and squalor of Informal Settlements in Johannesburg.

Thanks to your kind donations, we have over the past year been able to present new school shoes to 110 boys and girls from Zandspruit Primary School. The school is located within the informal settlement which is comprised mainly of tin structures otherwise referred to locally as shacks. We certainly would not have been able to do this without your support.

We have as well extended our involvement to support the children of the Jerusalem Informal settlement located in Florida, Roodepoort. We have started by using sports specifically soccer to gain access to the community and bring the young people together. In line with this we have set up a soccer club Hamberg United named after the locality we are based in. We are putting plans in place to provide extra tuition to these young boys and girls to raise their school performance from the primary through to high school levels. This children and young people in this program have grown in number to over fifty. The program will require much more resources which we believe can be raised from multiple sources including a sponsored half-marathon event in September 2026. We envision that this fundraising initiative will help expand our impact as we cater to the needs of the school going children.

We will keep you informed of our progress and as usual look forward to your continued support for which we are ever so grateful.

This settlement is composed mainly of tin structures otherwise known as shacks.

Thanks to your kind donations, we are happy to have in the past 6 months presented pairs of shoes to a total of 110 boys and girls from Zandspruit Primary School located within the informal settlement. We certainly would not have been able to do this without your support.

In the next quarter, we will be extending our involvement to the children of the Jerusalem Informal settlement located in Florida, Roodepoort. This additional program will require much more resources which we believe can be raised from multiple sources including a sponsored half-marathon event in 6 months’ time. We plan that this fundraising initiative will coincide with the beginning of the new school year in 2026 and will therefore expand our impact as we cater to the needs of the school going children.

We will keep you informed of our plans and as usual hope for your continued support for which we are ever so grateful.

Thank you
