Lily of the Valley Community Projects
An ethical, income generating community is what we are striving to achieve through projects which, amongst other things, provide sustainable food, education, income generation and life skills. Lily of the Valley Community Project is a non-profit community-based initiative.
Direct involvement with the community is the most effective way to fight the spread of the AIDS/HIV epidemic and to cope with its disastrous effects on a local level. Our objective is to aid and empower the needy and impoverished people of adjacent communities so that they become healthy, confident and self-reliant.
Community Capacity Building
The objective of this program is to develop the capacity of our community to generate income through employment and entrepreneurship. Current initiatives include:
- Computer Training Centre
- Adult Based Education Training
- Income Generation Activities (Sewing Centre, Beading Room, Store, Bakery, Food Processing Partnership, Mini-Factories)
Food Security
The aim of the food security program is to provide food for the children at our Children’s Village, generate income for the community and transfer farming and horticultural skills to community members. We also provide monthly food parcels to those in need in the community. The program currently consists of five vegetable growing tunnels and the use of existing farm land for additional crop farming.
