Christel House South Africa - 2020 Annual Report

Page 17

THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE All of our students are bussed daily to and from 20 communities, including Langa, Philippi, Hanover Park and Manenberg. The communities we serve battle unemployment, poverty, crime, gangsterism, domestic violence and drug abuse on a daily basis. As a vital part of our model, we offer free, daily transport to all our students to school and back home. This not only ensures the safety of our students, but also directly contributes to our high attendance rate of 93%. We only contract reliable, local community entrepreneurs to further support local economic development.
