Our heart for KwaCare 2011 is that we want to inspire and lead people to have hope and faith that communities and Nations can be changed. We want to raise awareness to the problem of poverty and the issues surrounding it and how we can tackle them effectively.

KwaCare was established in 1993 as a Non-Profit Organisation. Our goal is to change the lives of the people by impacting them spiritually, emotionally and physically.

Our focus is on the people of KwaDabeka who are mostly Zulu speaking and live in very poor conditions. Most inhabitants live in tin shacks with no running water or electricity. AIDS and TB are just another part of everyday life. These diseases leave children and adults alike, bedridden and/or unemployed, without hope for the future. Such dire circumstances contribute to domestic violence, child neglect and breakdown of the family structure. KwaDabeka has 45 000 inhabitants; 38% of the households have no income whatsoever. The average person between the ages of 15 and 65 has 5 dependants. It is becoming increasingly difficult for families to educate, clothe, nourish and sustain themselves as HIV/AIDS and TB continue to claim lives.

We work in conjunction with community members, health care workers, volunteer groups, local councillors and development committees. This enables us to reach the very poor and neediest of the community. We have built strong relationships with the people of KwaDabeka and are committed to facilitating transformation in their lives.
