Home Our Impact
Numbers you can check
Everything on this page comes from audited records and independent government monitoring. Nothing is estimated.
The year in numbers
We track our work across 13 Cape Town suburbs, reaching an estimated 2,000+ lives a year through social work, psychosocial rehabilitation, skills and advocacy.
What government monitors found
- 90% overall — Disability Services programme: "Mature/Healthy", the highest band
- 95% — Service Delivery score at both assessed sites
- 95% — Financial Management score
- 85% overall — Mitchells Plain protective workshop: "Mature/Healthy"
How we are funded - and why your gift matters
About three-quarters of our income is government subsidy, which pays our social workers. The rest — the building, the vans, the lights, the admin that carries everything — we fund ourselves: rental income from our property, our charity shop, and donors like you.
That last slice is exactly where your gift lands. Government does not fund the van that gets the social worker to the door. You do.
