St Georges Home for Girls

Volunteer to support our Extreme Makeover!

ST GEORGES HOME FOR GIRLS is a registered Children's Home  in the Wynberg area near Cape Town. It is currently the only residential care facility in the Wynberg District which provides for children who are abused, abandoned, neglected and orphaned.  Children from failed foster placements and those with behavioural problems are also cared for.

As with most children's homes in South Africa ST GEORGES HOME FOR GIRLS is in desperate need of some long overdue maintenance. It is our objective to create a dignified space in which these girls can grow up in , be proud of themselves and step into the world with confidence and skill.

MySchool Woolworths Newkidz Extreme Makeover in benefit of St Georges Home for Girls.

Our extreme makeover will include the following:

  • Painting the entire home,
  • Fit laminated flooring
  • Upgrade the dormitories to give them a more 'homely' atmosphere and new beds,
  • Purchasing of new bedding, linen, curtaining and furniture for the lounges, this is in dire need of replacement.
  • Upgrading the recreational area
  • A functional food garden

How did we decide on this project?

The Woolworths Food group ran a very unique Youth Day promotion during June 2009 which raised an additional R450 000 in benefit of MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet. These funds were earmarked for a project that would deliver meaningful and sustainable results in the local community. Specifically, we wanted to support a cause that is involved with the education and upliftment of children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Volunteer now! Please join us and help improve the home for these girls between 3 and 7 March 2010.

Volunteers will be required to assist in any way that they can. There are team leaders who will be responsible for small volunteer groups and will provide guidance and training.

If you are willing to assist us with painting, removing tiles, pouring refreshments, planting in the garden etc we will gladly appreciate your kindness.

If you wish to offer your assistance in helping to improve the home for the girls, please fill in the application form and send it back to us.
