Blikkiesdorp, also known as “Tin Can Town”, is found tucked away and out of sight in Delft, about a 25km drive from Cape Town’s city centre. It was meant to be a TRA, the City’s abbreviation for Temporary Relocation Area, but it has been housing residents for ten years. It consists of 2 000 to 2 500 households living in tin shacks.

Community Outreach Projects in partnership with NPO, Bread & Bounty Community Action Network, have once again embarked on a project in association with Blikkiesdorp Community Forum to provide a warm meal and bread for the Blikkiesdorp Community. Our niyah is to provide a warm meal to this forgotten community on 30th November, in sha Allah. Our intention is also to distribute 1 500 loaves of bread (one of our biggest bread drives yet).

Any member of the community wishing to donate clothes or Islamic literature for the Madrasah, are welcome to contact any of our members.. 

We are once again, humbly appealing to the community to assist in our bread appeal. We also would like to encourage members of the community who is available on the 30th November to come and assist us during our warm food and bread distribution.
