Kingsburgh Child and Family Welfare stands strong 76 years on
The welfare looks forward to serving the community for another 76 years.
KINGSBURGH Child and Family Welfare (KCFW) celebrates 76 years of committed service to Kingsburgh and surrounding areas on Monday, November 29.
It was in 1945 that a group of caring residents felt there was a need for a formal child welfare organisation to be formed, and as they say in the classics “the rest is history”.
“Our focus is family preservation, hence our social work services are aimed at children and families,” said KCFW chairperson, Jenny Smith.
KCFW has established itself as key role-players in the implementation of training and development programmes, which are directed by senior social worker, Sandra Govender.
“Our society, like many other NGOs, is not government or lotto funded and we rely on the generosity of our community to enable us to keep our doors open. The thrift shop which is situated at our office, helps with the daily expenses.”
“My special thanks go to past and present volunteers who have successfully kept KCFW in the for front to helping so many children and families lead productive lives.”
