GBV Victims Transport Required

Healing Hands Shelter has been very busy with the numbers rising with gvb incidents on the rise in Port Elizabeth.  We struggle with the little Polo Vivo 1.4 hatchback to transport victims to Saps, clinic and hospitals. We rteceive victims daily facing issues of family violence, indecent assault, bullying, suicide attemps and running for safety of fear for the lives from spouses and partners. We provide safe accomodation, transportation, basic needs, counseling and support, preparation of cv's and assistance with finding work as well as aftercare for victims. The transport is vital in transporting our clients to relavant stakeholders in order to reach the end goal of solving the problems and ensuring the safety of our clients.

This vehicle is also used for other programs such as Soup Kitchen, Community Gardens Projects, collection of donations and distributions to beneficiaries, and disasters. Another vehicle will be very helpful and make a huge difference in the lives of beneficiaries as well as the staff of Healing Hands.  Women as well as children are transported in this little vehicle. Any type of support will be a huge blessing to our Projects and the People of Port Elizabeth. 

Yours in Community Development
