ignisive Graduation and Gratitude Celebration of community stewards

 

ignisive Graduation and Gratitude Celebration

Today is a significant day…

Surrounded by heart people who are connected with the shared vision and purpose of serving others for the greater good.

Our Ignisive - ignite inclusive change Community Stewards proudly received their certificates of attendance for the Spark Employability Skills Programme that we facilitated this year (since April 2022).

We got to honour these special individuals for their (already two year) commitment in providing a key safety ambassador service in our community (for visitors, businesses and residents).

Thanks so much to sponsors, Bo-Vine Wine & Grill House for the Boerie rolls, Pick n Pay Camps Bay for the coldrinks and doughnuts, WOOLWORTHS Camps Bay for the trolley full of fruit, Verve for the “I Camps Bay” water and community member Silvana Silverman for the wonderful surprise gift packs for each Steward.

Each Steward also received a PnP voucher to contribute towards their festive season grocery shopping.

We also got to acknowledge our collaborative A+ (Positive Action) Team, South African Police Service Captain Keith Chandler , Sergeant Glynnis Jean Bester , Sergeant Nathan Okkers , City of Cape Town Councillor Nicola Jowell - Ward 54 Fiona Bosch, Karen Rudy, Steven Maresch, (in their absence…Richard Bendel Camps Bay & Clifton Ratepayers Association Vice Chairman , Kalksteenfontein Principal Ms Catri Hamman , Homestead Fieldworker Aldrid Van Vuuren) and Ambassadors Jean-marc Johannes (World Champion Skateboarder) and Musician Liam Burger (in his absence while starting a tour) for their unwavering commitment and support, in often going above and beyond the call of duty for the communities we serve.

Thanks Village n Life (The Bay Hotel) for helping us ‘play it forward’ by gifting contributors an overnight stay at one of your hotels.

Without this extensive reach and support we are unable to tackle the daily on-street (and systemic) challenges we face.

We wish this team well as we welcome probably our busiest festive season yet and appreciate our community/businesses ongoing efforts to help us achieve the changes we wish to see.

i Love Camps Bay campaign to help homelessness

 Help us spread the love

If there’s one common thread that binds our Residents, Businesses and Visitors, it is our love for Camps Bay and the desire to see it thrive…as a safe and sought after suburb.

If our visitors and residents have a great experience we directly impact the contributions we make to tourism/our economy and ultimately can help even more people in vulnerable situations.

For us that means we take a proactive stance on supporting people in a responsible, dignified way…but also in a way that empowers people not enables further poverty.

We are extremely grateful for Veldskoen Shoes Plakkie South Africa, Verve and Mountain Falls Water, Camps Bay & Clifton Ratepayers Association, Camps Bay Community Policing Forum Camps Bay CSI , CBW and our local businesses (especially Cafe Caprice, The Codfather, Bo-Vine Wine & Grill House / Beach House Camps Bay) who have helped co-create a ‘Responsible Giving’ (I Camps Bay) campaign, unique to Camps Bay.

It would be a wonderful win-win for all if we collectively spread the word and encourage more people and businesses (including Guest Houses/Hotels) to join forces and promote the products/services that will proactively help our teams on the ground achieve more…especially over this anticipated, bumper festive season.

Every ounce of your support makes every bit of difference.

Thanks to all supporters for bringing us this far…now let’s step into those Plakkie’s and walk the miles ahead, united…with the shared vision of making Camps Bay a place that everyone loves.

“Let your spark of love ignite infinite potentials.”
