WHO WE ARE
The purpose of RE:NEW is to provide community development, poverty alleviation and relief to surrounding communities.
As a Public Benefit Organisation, RE:NEW Trust specifically works with communities on Morgenster farm, Altydgedacht farm, Fisantekraal informal settlement as well as domestic workers living and working in the Protea Valley area.
WHAT WE DO
01.
— Education Support
The education, empowerment and rendering of basic skills training primarily to domestic workers, farm workers, the unemployed and their families; and the provision of school and tertiary fees funding for children from disadvantaged backgrounds.
HISTORY
RE:NEW Trust was formed by members of Protea Valley Church’s congregation in 2015. We live in a country characterised by high unemployment, an education system in crisis and little opportunity for people to lift themselves out of the cycle of poverty in which they find themselves. A few kilometres away from PVC, farming communities (such as Morgenster and Altydgedacht) and informal settlements (such as Morning Star and Fisantekraal) are beset by socioeconomic crises. Government initiatives, NGOs and other large public benefit organisations are thinly stretched and struggling to impact these communities in a sustainable and empowering way.
RE:NEW Trust was formed in response to this situation and the huge sense amongst the founding trustees that we need to work together, using our time, gifts and resources to empower and uplift our communities.
