SAVF launches Bring Hope programme

SAVF offers support to battled communities.

The SAVF Bring Hope 2021 campaign aims to bring smiles to Germiston informal settlement communities as they receive soup.

Germiston Extension Five residents were out on August 5 as they greeted residents with a hot cup of soup and bread when SAVF launched its poverty elevation programmes.

SAVF Germiston, in partnership with SAVF Kinross Herberg, fed at least 163 people during their visit and more were fed at Makause and Delta areas.

Jozelle Steenkamp, SAVF Kinross Herberg manager, said the SAVF mission is to render welfare, welfare-related and other social development services to child and youth care, family care, elderly and disabled care in communities to the advantage of all who may benefit.

Lucy Kenfac from SAVF Germiston said the project was sponsored by the national office in Pretoria.

“Our purpose is to maximise the strength and existing potential of disadvantaged families by empowering the human capacity of all people,” said Steenkamp.

The SAVF also caters for the old as the SAVF Kinross Herberg cares for the aged.
