Team members brighten up uThingo Crisis Centre by adding a fresh touch to the home.
In Johannesburg, the teams spent their 67 minutes assisting at the Tshepang Program for Orphaned and Vulnerable Centre, while the Cape Town teams contributed to the Baphumelele Child Youth Care Centre.
In Durban, teams supported vulnerable children and victims of abuse at the uThingo Crisis Centre, south of Durban. This centre provides essential care for children and empowers women affected by gender-based violence. Team members engaged in a variety of hands-on activities including face painting, wall painting, preparing meals and beds, as well as home improvements. The Hollywood Foundation also provided stoves, fridges, kitchenware, and cleaning supplies for the centre’s daily operations.
