Breathe Life

Dear Survivor, Throughout my life, I've found comfort in helping those who are wounded, homeless, abused, or lost. Like you, I have faced abuse in many forms, but I never gave up.

During my final struggle to hang on to life, I realized that what I needed was a "Hand Up," not a "Hand Out." I was fortunate to have a few angelic souls who saw my worth when I couldn't see it myself.

At The Saartjie Baartman Centre, we offer countless "Hand Ups" and endless hope.

Reach out to SBCWC, and we will do everything we can to guide, shelter, and counsel you. Most importantly, we will help you understand that your pain will pass, and your journey toward healing begins with us.

Call us to find out how we can support you.
