A safe haven for vulnerable children
Joshua Project is a community development and skills center in Kouga. Partners work side by side to restore children’s hope and future through education, care and skills.

How we help: MEND
Four simple words guide everything we do with the children and youth in our care.
Mentoring
We come alongside children to build them up and pass on skills that help them grow into healthy, self-supporting adults.
About our mentoringEducating
Adult education (AET), skills training and homework support, as part of a whole-child approach to learning.
About our educationNurturing
Nutritious daily meals, plus help with hygiene and laundry when children need it.
About our careDiscipling
Guidance for emotional and spiritual growth, and for living out the Christian faith day to day, grounded in sound biblical teaching.
About our disciplingInvest in a child’s future
Who makes sure a child eats today? Who sits with them over homework that makes no sense? Who shows them a trade that could one day pay the bills? In Jeffreys Bay and Humansdorp, people like you make that possible.
Build strong children. It beats repairing broken adults.
