Do your part for a better festive season.
GOODWoodstock is turning its attentions to a good Christmas for all. As part of their Christmas market on 6 and 7 December, GOOD is encouraging visitors to donate to their Christmas charity drive that supports The Homestead and Nonceba House.
The Homestead is a shelter for homeless children and has multiple programmes through Cape Town and surrounds that provide cover for over 450 boys and girls.
Nonceba House is a safe house and support for sexually abused women and children and runs programmes that include trauma counselling clinic, a daily aftercare programme and a boy’s to men’s programme.
