From the charity side just the following;
At Papillon we try our best to self generate the required income by charging a small fee for the accredited skills training projects that we offer to the unemployed.
The skills training focus is upon empowering needy people with the skills to start their own small businesses.

Any excess income is ploughed into our free donated goods distribution projects that deliver donated goods to organizations in poor areas across the country.

Our free trauma training project for child workers is also delivering amazing results in the upskilling of police trauma volunteers, day care staff, pre-school staff and many others.

Now here's the thing, charity work is not for the faint hearted and it is tremendously stressful. An added burden is the struggle for survival to continue helping others. Many people are left broken and destitute when a good charity is forced to close its doors.

How do I know this? At The Papillon Foundation we are now in our 18th year of existence and somehow we have lasted. We don't send out appeals for help and we don't do e-mail requests, but some charities are forced to do this for survival.

This world would turn into a nightmare if all charities were to close down. It is people like you that help to keep them going!
Blessings!
