Helping lift people out of the “Poverty Cycle”, is a process and very often a slow one ,certain residents leave then feel the need to return later and try again, we believe everyone is deserving of a second chance.
Our youngest resident is 7 years old and our eldest 78 years old. Our initial intention was not to have mothers with young children on the property. However – this has become increasingly difficult and as poverty increases we find it more and more difficult to turn them away.
All residents are required to rise at 7.00am.Each member has daily duties and responsibilities i.e. cooking, cleaning, gardening maintenance and general work – idleness is not tolerated from anyone.

What do we provide?

• Shelter
• Food
• Clothing
• Bedding
• Access to doctors, clinics hospitals and social welfare departments

We have regular religious devotions, bible study and church services led by ministers from churches on the South Coast and farther away.

Our organization is solely reliant on the kindness of donations from the body of the Church, local businesses and volunteers who donate of their time, skills and resources. We receive donations in the form of bank deposits, food, blankets, clothing and toiletries. Food is a big priority and the people receive three nutritious meals a day. But these meals are minimal – one hot meal is provided in the evening consisting of vegetables and meat when available. We have accommodated up to 100 residents at one time over the years. Certainly one can comprehend that feeding the residents is the most challenging and costly part of our operation.
