Despite increased investment in social infrastructure, many communities, particularly those in rural and urban informal settlements still face significant deficiencies. Thembalethu Development's approach is to ensure that the local infrastructure remain in good condition and usable by community members. Through its programme, the organisation mobilise resources to assist in maintaining the local existing infrastructure and where possible develop new infrastructures.
Thembalethu Development local economic development and job creation programme addresses unemployment in marginalized areas by providing regular work opportunities. Thembalethu Development manages this programme, fostering community engagement and providing a source of income security while promoting community development projects.
Thembalethu Development's Water and Sanitation Programme addresses water scarcity and sanitation challenges in rural and peri-urban areas. By repairing existing infrastructure and creating new water sources, we promote community health and hygiene.
