Kate Pettit fires it up!

Recent addition to the Ikhaya Labantu management, Kate Pettit has been settling well, hitting the ground running and providing excellent assistance to the shelter staff and residents.

Among her early achievements, Kate has managed to get Ikhaya Labantu a spot in the local 'How to Help' Cape Town guide book, a reference point for local volunteers and donors that provides a great new outlet for shelter publicity. The famous guide book, found all over the city in shops and business centres, describes different community projects in Cape Town, what they do, and the best way that you, as a reader, could be of help.

She has also been liasing with Pearson, the world's leading educational publishing company, in order to help them work out their Corporate Social Responsibility goals alongside Ikhaya Labantu. Pearson are planning to provide training for Eyabantu Educare's teachers, as well as re-set the roofes on the babies side of the creche and on the learning centre, and provide new gas cylinders for the kitchen!!

This is all very exciting!
