Botshabelo

The Botshabelo Project is being developed in Midrand by Covenant Life Church with the help of many concerned individuals and companies. Botshabelo is a Tswana word which means 'place to run to' and the Botshabelo Project is a multi-sectoral project addressing the needs of orphans (or abandoned babies), abused women and economically disadvantaged people. The church opened a Home for Abandoned Babies in March 2000 and has recently opened a Shelter for Abused Women and their children. The Food Gardens project has been operational since May 1999 and has provided trainees with the necessary organic food garden and business skills to run their own food garden businesses. Social upliftment and economic development are the core goals of these projects initiated by Botshabelo.
