❤🏆Established in 2007, On Eagle's Wings Multi-purpose Centre is a vital lifeline facilitating holistic healing for victims and survivors of gender-based violence, with a specific focus on women and children. Serving the Kouga and Kou-kamma Municipalities, this critical organization operates the only specialized GBVF shelter in the entire Sarah Baartman District—saving the lives of individuals, young teenage girls, and boys facing a national crisis.
After years of operating a short-term, 3-day safe home, the organization reached a massive milestone in 2025 by securing a larger, better facility in Joubertina, allowing them to accommodate survivors for up to six months. Backed by a dedicated team of professional housemothers, a project manager, and a qualified social worker, the center provides comprehensive care to help clients heal and function in a healthy manner.
However, renovating this vital new space has been an uphill battle due to a lack of adequate funding. A floor and paint makeover would be entirely transformative, completing the puzzle to make this long-term shelter fully operational, safe, and welcoming. It would create an immediate "wow" factor, restoring dignity and sending a powerful message of hope to survivors across the Eastern Cape and South Africa as a whole.
