Shuttle Service as a Sustainability Program

Necessary resources in Kliptown are in limited supply. Running water is scarce. Proper sanitation, safe electrical installations and proper schooling is limited. Due to the Covid-19 lockdown many parents have lost their jobs and can't provide food and other necessities for their families. Also, because of Covid-19, South Africa had to cut down on international travel which has severely curtailed a previous source of income for our youth center.

2021 a minibus was purchased to create revenue for the sustainability of the center and the continuity for the daily runnings of the center. The second minibus will also be used as a shuttle bus to help us bring in revenue from our growing tourism business. We have already created travel arrangements with hotels, tourism companies, other businesses and schools that need transport services. Profits from this business will be used to keep our youth center sustainable and help it grow.

Having another Minibus will help sustain the organisation in the future. The COVID-19 pandemic made us realise that we need something that will generate revenue for the organisation and the minibus will help to generate income so that we can keep our daily programs running everyday. Through this Minibus project we will cover most of the activities and get as many opportunities for the sustainability of the organisation. This will also get us more customers in future as a sustainable goal.

The first MiniBus has been doing very well in helping us create support for our daily programs
