Give to this project
Umthombo Wempilo provides immediate assistance to women in crisis, helping them access services and providing them with emotional and spiritual counselling. Many find out about Umthombo through word-of-mouth, but staff also visit brothels to help sex workers in need. In some cases, Umthombo staff provide women with skills training and assistance in starting small businesses. The project also runs a weekly Bible study group.
Umthombo Wempilo means ‘Well of Life’, inspired by the story of Jesus meeting the woman at the well in John 4.
