Thinking warm thoughts and safety for everyone in Cape Town navigating the aftermath of this part of the storm.

Grateful for those incredible members in our team who braved the elements to assess the damage at the Hope Centre, unite in prayer, and check on community members.

We bought some tools & supplies to support residents who have been at work fixing their homes since morning. Quite a few families are facing damaged roofs and water in their homes.

Please continue to keep the Camp Road communities in your prayers.

Getting plans into place to rebuild homes. Thank you to all the generous sponsors, community members & donors who gave over the last week. WE HAVE COVERED THE CRITICAL ASKS & have no more space for donation storage since the families don't have a home yet!
