GIVE A SATURDAY, NOT A SALARY
You don't need money, a qualification, or a car. You need a few hours and a willingness to carry things. That's genuinely it — and it's the difference between thirty parcels packed and three hundred.
WHAT YOU'D ACTUALLY DO
Pick whatever fits you. Most volunteers end up doing a bit of everything, and nobody is put anywhere they said they'd rather not be.
PACK & SORT
Sorting donated clothing and blankets, building food parcels, making up hygiene packs. Indoors, seated, chatty. The easiest way to start and the job we always need most hands for.
DISTRIBUTION DAYS
On site in Kya Sand handing out parcels, managing the queue, serving hot food. Physical, sometimes emotional, and the day most volunteers say changed how they see the city.
COMMUNITY DAYS
Running games and jumping castles for the children while their parents collect relief. If you're good with kids, this is where you're worth the most.
SKILLS FROM HOME
Photography, social media, spreadsheets, grant applications, driving a bakkie on collection day. Real gaps we currently fill badly, from wherever you are.
TUTORING & MENTORING
Homework support and mentorship for children we're keeping in school. Needs consistency more than expertise — the same face every week matters more than the subject.
TRADES & BUILD
Carpenters, electricians, plumbers, welders: our modular housing pilot and post-fire rebuilds need you specifically. Tell us your trade and we'll call when it's your week.
FROM HERE TO THERE
Four steps, no interview panel, no forms in triplicate.
You sign up
The form below takes under a minute. Tell us when you're free and anything you're good at.
We WhatsApp you
A real person, usually within two working days, with the date and place of the next thing you could join.
You come once
No commitment beyond that day. Come, see what it's like, decide afterwards whether it's for you.
You choose your rhythm
Some volunteers come weekly, some twice a year when we call for a big drive. Both are genuinely useful.
WHAT NOBODY PUTS ON THE POSTER
If that hasn't put you off, you're exactly who we're looking for.
TAKES A MINUTE
We'll come back to you on WhatsApp with the next date. Signing up commits you to nothing — you can say no to every single date we send and we'll keep sending them.
Would rather just phone? 076 505 3735 — or message us on WhatsApp.
