VIWE is a registered child protection organisation that is situated in the heart of the Schauderville community. We provide services in the vibrant city of Port Elizabeth and within the Eastern Cape where required.
UVIWE is a non-profit organisation that concentrates on the creation of a caring society protective of children’s rights while focusing on the development of children and youth to improve their quality of life and to unlock their full potential.
Violence and poverty have become daily dark realities for the children within the surrounding communities. UVIWE reaches out to protect and empower the vulnerable so that they may rise up and take the first step into a hope filled future.
Our biggest areas of impact remain:
-Protection of children’s rights (specifically in the area of abuse, neglect and abandonment) and empowering communities to protect their own children
-Providing alternative care options to abused and severely neglected children, while working with parents towards reunification
-Empowering communities through training of unemployed community volunteers and linking youth with employment partners
-Provide effective support, court preparation and treatment services to child and youth victims of crime such as rape, violence and sexual abuse
-Sustainable youth development by focusing on a selected number of youth enrolled in the Teacher-Learner-Care programme
-Providing professional training courses to equip Social Service professionals with skills and knowledge to implement the Children Act and enhance the child protection system in the Eastern Cape
UVIWE – where children are truly heard!
