People4Purpose launches an urgent community appeal to help a father and his two young sons facing displacement after job loss and calls for help to regain stable housing, access to food, and the basic necessities.

 

South Africa (03 December 2025) – People4Purpose is once again stepping in to support a family in distress, and we are reaching out to the community

A local family is urgently in need of assistance after two young boys and their father, Noah, were displaced this week. The family has been locked out of their room due to outstanding rent of R1 800, leaving the children without access to their school uniforms, clothing, and personal belongings.

The immediate priority is to help the family regain stable accommodation. Community members are being asked to assist with rent, groceries and toiletries to provide the boys with proper meals and basic necessities

The situation follows Noah, who recently lost his job, which has resulted in financial difficulty and instability for the family. While urgent needs are being addressed, efforts are also underway to help him secure employment. A CV is currently being prepared, and he is available immediately for handywork, gardening and yard work, painting and cleaning.

Community members who wish to assist can contribute in several ways:

  • Send a Checkers Sixty60 or an online grocery order
  • Arrange drop-offs or collections

Or Contribute financially via:

  • People4Purpose NPO (NPO 249109)
  • FNB Clearwater
  • Account: 62789400571
  • Reference: Noah
