About Isiseko

Our story began in June of 2019 with a small initiative to collect winter jackets and blankets for the homeless. This quickly evolved into collecting and distributing hygienic packs and sandwiches to those living on the streets on a monthly basis. Though a thoughtful gesture, we were but placing a bandaid on a larger societal issue. 

​

At Isiseko we partner with low quintile schools in the Western Cape that need assistance with feeding schemes, educational workshops, extra-curricular activities, and assistance with schooling necessities. In targeting schools directly we have the benefit of tailoring our efforts to the needs of the student body and the school. This allows us to focus on the importance of education in preventing young children falling victim to the cycle of poverty and homelessness.
