Our model operates on these principles:

• Working with the strengths of individuals
• Empowering families to make decisions
• Making peace and restoring relationships
• Creating groups that are inclusive and render mutual support
• Building friendships within communities and with the wider society

Activating individuals to help themselves

Children and Youth...

• Gain confidence and a sense of belonging through sports & arts
• Access opportunities to learn through homework supervision, tuition and creative skills
• Linked to resources that come through volunteers, donors and partners
• Receive opportunities for leadership in their own neighbourhoods

Encouraging local communities to look out for one another

Families…

• Get support and are empowered to make decisions.
• Linked to skills development and employment opportunities
• Cooperate better with each other to create a shared vision, build on assets and respond to needs in the community
• Develop the ability to resolve issues that impact many families in the neighbourhood in a peaceful, and collaborative manner

Enabling wider society to reach out a hand of friendship

Communities…

• Invite and involve volunteers, donors and partners to participate in their neighbourhoods
• Generate a positive shift in societal perception of low-income communities
• Authentic relationships are formed between communities and wider society
• Wider society has a stake in the vulnerable groups around them and will cooperate with them towards common goals
