“Igniting Community Transformation”
MAIN OBJECTIVE
Safe Cities is a non-profitable organization that serves children, youth and families in communities such as Atlantis, Bishop Lavis, Elsies River, Manenberg and Khayelitsha.
We build relationships and leverage from public, private, religious and social service organizations to benefit the immediate community, however, we believe that improvement in public safety, education, housing and commercial opportunity happens only when those directly affected determine their community’s course.
