Nokuphila Community Services

Nokuphila Community Services is a non-profit organization that provides Care and Support services to people living with HIV/AIDS, orphans and vulnerable children in and around Springs in the Ekurhuleni area. The organisation runs an Early Childhood Development & Learning Centre, Poverty Alleviation programs, provides Psychosocial Support to the affected and infected and runs a Drop-In Centre among other things, which caters mainly for primary going children who require our services. This includes ensuring that they get nutritious breakfast delivered to their respective schools on a daily basis, a balanced meal for lunch also on a daily basis as well as assistance with homework. We are about to launch a computer centre to ensure that these underprivileged children get an opportunity to be exposed to computers early in life and that they can fairly compete with other more privileged children. We will greatly appreciate any form of assistance to further our objectives and to reach more beneficiaries.
