Help Khulisa Social Solutions with 5 volunteers for assisting with establishment of herb & vegetable garden
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Khulisa’s Alex (Peacemaking/ Social Cohesion) Programme capacitates individuals, the community, local government and NGOs to roll out peace-building and social cohesion activities to create an inclusive and collective space for experience sharing and conflict resolution. The programme serves to equip and empower people with actionable knowledge about social cohesion, peace-making, restoration and active citizenship. An in-depth practical entrepreneurship component promotes job creation, employment, and innovation. Khulisa’s eco system approach to community development involves all of the social actors who operate within a broad social change context of political, economic, environmental and social realities that determine the distribution of resources, who holds the power over and has access to them, and who does not. The programme aims to aid 200 000 plus direct beneficiaries and serve the Alexandra community at large. We are looking for individuals with experience in the design of herb and vegetable gardens located in secure facilities in Alexandra that already have flower beds established but require assistance in terms of: • Types of vegetables to grow • Training of community members • Brainstorm on produce that could be produced e.g. jams, condiments etc., • Marketing of the end product • Training at the community centres

Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
