Community Social Angels

 

Backchat was joined by Community Social Angels, a non-profit organisation, is tackling abuse, teen pregnancy, unemployment, substance abuse and other social problems in Hangberg.

Their aim is to assist their community in all social aspect. Family strengthening workshops, swimming lessons and daily soup kitchens are among the initiatives the group has helped to run.

Although the organisation was founded in 2021, it is filled with people who have loads of experience up their sleeve. It was mainly started because they each had a common interest which is a community orientated social upliftment.

 

Wendy shared that they had their first community event recently and it was a big success for the organisation as a whole since it was started. She along with her team is looking to improve their presence all over.

 The programs they run include; early childhood development, family strengthening programmes, and also swimming lessons in Long Street Cape Town.

Community social angels is planning to have another project name the loss and grief, for those who want to speak or share about a loved one they have lost. They will also be bringing in professionals top assist and anyone is welcome to join or volunteer. They hope ton grow and create more awareness around suppressing issues.
