This project will fundraise the amount needed to cover stipends to the cleaning teams and their leaders, and to purchase the equipment needed to run the GROW Hillbrow job rehabilitation programme for a period of 6 months. The aim of the programme is to assist people seeking to re-enter the employment market.
MES is a Christian social development organisation that facilitates professional services to vulnerable or at-risk individuals, families and communities empowering them through a holistic service model to become independent and sustainable.
The GROW Hillbrow initiative has two main objectives. The first is service-orientated and designed to make an environmental impact on defined areas in Hillbrow by cleaning the streets and surrounds. The second is participant-orientated by utilising the provision of cleaning services rendered by homeless/ formerly homeless individuals residing in the Hillbrow area, as an opportunity to develop and equip them to become sustainable citizens.
Funds raised will be used to pay stipends to the cleaning teams and their leaders, and to purchase the equipment needed for cleaning.
About GROW Hillbrow
This initiative is an opportunity for anyone, but particularly, un-employable and vulnerable persons, to participate in a job- and life-rehabilitation programme, earning cash in hand for honest hard work, of which the end result is a “Graduation List” of participants who are deemed to be employable persons of quality.
