Community support

You do not need money to make a difference. Neighbours and local people are some of the most important protectors children have.

Ways to help without giving money

  • Donate goods. Clean clothing, shoes, blankets, toiletries, books and non-perishable food. Please contact us first so we can tell you what is needed most.
  • Give your time. Even a few hours can help — see volunteering.
  • Spread the word. Tell people about Khumbulani and share our posts. Word of mouth helps us find volunteers and supporters.
  • Look out for children. Know the signs that a child may be at risk, and report concerns.
  • Support local families. Help a neighbour who is struggling. Strong families are the best protection for children.

If you are worried about a child

Dropping off donated goods

Please contact us before dropping off goods so we can make sure someone is there to receive them and that we can use what you bring.

Help us keep children safe

Your support helps Khumbulani Children's Place of Safety care for and protect children in Khayelitsha.
