The house and the farm land were donated to the foundation by him and his family. All members of the community are involved in running the house and working on the farm (caring for the animals, producing dairy products). They are offered artistic workshops and therapeutic activities. Nevertheless, most of the people the foundation looks after are not able to live on their own and need constant supervision and care. Currently there are 13 handicapped people living in the house with 7 caretakers (4 employees and 3 volunteers). More 2 Life is providing financial support for renovation and maintenance projects. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/768eb610-b856-4f11-ac56-973d708ae6a8/Staff+and+few+of+the+boys.JPG Home - Supporting Children in Need: Priscilla’s Home Care Over the last 15-20 years, Priscilla Ligwa’s small, 4 room township house in Nyanga, has been converted into a care home for 13 HIV orphans. More 2 Life started to support this wonderful care home in 2008 by contributors “adopting” 3 of the orphans as part of the HIV Orphans project, including Simamkele who was adopted by a UK family. Since then, More 2 Life has been actively involved in supporting Priscilla around staffing, maintenance, education and care for the children. More 2 Life and its partners contribute ca. 85% of the operating budget of Priscilla’s Home Care of ca. ZAR 230,000 per year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/08c2d4f3-be56-4309-8105-f5db3b749bab/IMG_8156.JPG Home - Supporting the Disabled: Masincedane Nancy Rwexhana started Masincedane, a care centre for severely disabled children, at her home in Nyanga, to care for her daughter, Lihle, who suffered from Cerebral Palsy. Today, in memory of Lihle, Masincedane is the home for ca. 20 severely disabled children, offering a sign of hope in the midst of extreme poverty and rampant crime. Without any backyard or sidewalk, the washing line may be situated on the street, but the children of Masincedane are taken care of with patience and love. More 2 Life and its partners contribute ca. 50% of the operating budget of Masincedane of ca. ZAR 500,000 per year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/1639164341367-U0GQV0DMLTICU95GLD62/main-3.jpg Home - Supporting the Community: Mould Empower Serve (MES) MES is a Christian integrated social development organisation that has been changing the heart of South African cities since 1986 and has been actively working towards providing sustainable solutions to pervasive poverty in the inner cities of Johannesburg, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Kempton Park. In South Africa, the gap between the rich and poor is large. People struggling to make ends meet generally move to cities to find employment, but they often end up living on the street. MES is doing incredible work to support these people, not by giving them money, but helping them holistically to establish a life in the city. Knowing and trusting the people working for MES and believing in the philosophy of MES, More 2 Life has been an annual contributor to MES since 2015. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/c70c4b54-67e8-4aa5-a20a-604568744e2a/Lerato+Ligwa.jpg Home - Supporting Education It is well known that good education is the best (and possibly only) way to relieve poverty in the world. More 2 Life supports this philosophy. We are assisting children and adults from poor communities in the Western Cape, South Africa, to go to school, get tertiary and other work qualification. Furthermore, we give these children and students physical, emotional and spiritual support. In the first instance, support for education is provided to those individuals we support under our other projects. For example, after supporting Akhona since the age of 7 as part of our Orphan Project, More 2 Life supported her through all her studies and is now supporting her daughter in her primary education. Part of our education project is operated in partnership with the Dutch Reformed Moederkerk in Stellenbosch, which has a group of highly qualified members helping approximately 80 students to obtain tertiary qualifications, at Stellenbosch University, colleges and other educational institutions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/a3c38294-d4dd-4a88-85cf-aa7fb1d7146c/11.+Nasiphi+and+her+mother+Akhona+Tuku.JPG Home - Supporting Children in Need: Orphan Project The streets of Nyanga are filled with children left without parents as a result of HIV/Aids, other illnesses or violence. Many of these children have been infected with HIV/Aids themselves. They do not have homes, do not have food, do not attend school and do not have hope. Social workers in the area started an initiative to identify these HIV orphans and place them with foster parents in the area. However, families in Nyanga do not have the financial means to feed another mouth or send another child to school. Accordingly, to place a single child with a foster home requires funds of ZAR 550 per month (CHF 35 per month). More 2 Life has supported a foster family for more than 15 years, providing also educational support through the Education projects, and is now providing education support also for the next generation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/1644424443737-5GX0XYHK6H1MDIXFJ9VF/Family.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61adc67ab2d1b12c94f97c3e/1644424525996-BMHRFW6GFGWSO1O9JLRS/Pa+%26+Ma.jpg Home https://www.more2life.ch/donate-1 daily 0.75 2025-06-10
