2023 TRIP TO South Africa

LAST NOVEMBER 8-14 2023

Join Sales Professionals from across the country as we travel to Cape Town, South Africa to give back to children and families in need. Solar Gives Back has partnered with a local charity company that operates humanitarian projects in the region. Located on the southern tip of Africa, Cape Town is a stunning city with a rich history and vibrant culture. Just outside the city, there are many communities that have struggled to make ends meet, lacking access to basic necessities like hot water and reliable transportation. Our focus will be on helping these communities through various projects and initiatives, making a positive impact on their lives.

Projects

Globe Aware engages volunteers in several different work projects targeted at helping those who are impoverished. Much of the work and projects are related to helping the overcrowded community of Imizano Yetho township where most of the residents live in makeshift shacks (some Westerners would call these – slums) sharing communal taps and toilets with hundreds of neighbors, where the roads are potholed and where the basic infrastructure is run-down. The projects will vary depending on weather conditions, the number of volunteers, and the projects’ needs.

Volunteers will be involved in helping to improve and maintain informal community and pre-school (crèche) care centers, assisting with the refurbishment of the Community Youth Centre, helping to rebuild shacks lost due to fires, replacing simple roofing, home waterproofing, installing concrete flooring, painting and refurbishing local schools, participating in community and schools’ sports programs like soccer, volleyball, field hockey, Physical Education lessons. Other projects may include working to improve schools in Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay, painting murals, and doing other maintenance projects.
