Action Change (Formally GVI Trust) Help The Homeless in Africa
PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Homeless people has had a rapid increase since COVID-19 and sadly it was already a huge issue on the streets of Cape Town. Working with our homeless partner we help provide a homeless shelter and hot meals for homeless people in the city. These people we meet and come to us are then offered a rehabilitation program where they become a temp resident and go through a rehab program to kick any addiction and once clean they join our enterprise program and work in shops or the shelter to gain skills
