African Solutions to African Problems is a rural development NGO founded in 2003 that helps women

caring for orphaned and vulnerable children in remote communities to take action for themselves to

address Health, Education and Development challenges, and through Advocacy to have their needs

recognised and voices heard. Our work supports the most vulnerable members of South African society in

some of the most isolated and under-resourced areas, providing practical assistance, education and hope

where these are otherwise in scarce supply. Our integrative, facilitative approach offers a proven path to

well-being, dignity and a brighter future.

CONTENTS

Dear Friends and Supporters,

On an organisational level, we introduced elements of Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) to aid communities in

identifying and leveraging their assets, amongst other things. This leads to a powerful paradigm shift which is instrumental in

developing agency. We also strengthened existing independent community support care structures to ensure continued high

quality care for Orphaned and Vulnerable Children (OVC).

We also moved our Programme Manager to the Matatiele office to provide closer guidance and mentoring to our young and

enthusiastic local team on the ground. Linet’s presence in the field increased the quality of service delivery to our

beneficiaries by strengthening the team’s facilitation skills, organizational capacity and m&e standards.

And, while we will continue promoting long term relationships, depth of engagement and on-going support, the year

ahead will see us adjust our role in communities in response to their growing capacity. The increased ability of the

women to take action for themselves and to improve the lives of their children, are the ultimate indicators of growth

for the communities and success for ASAP.

The support ASAP received this year reached an important new milestone with our

inaugural African fundraising event held in Johannesburg. It is wonderful that, despite

the constant need so visible at every street corner in South Africa, people opened their

hearts and wallets to support our programmes, recognising the need of rural women

and children in particular. A special thank you to our local Trustees Mbali Thubisi and

Andre Titus for their support and help in organizing the event.

The 7th Biennial London fundraiser was held in London in May and proved to be

ever-popular and successful. I am extremely grateful to our international donors for

their on-going support, and particularly grateful to the UK Committee who gave so

freely of their time and resources to create such a wonderful event. Their ongoing effort

continues to bring hope to the lives of marginalised children whose lives we aim to

uplift.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my colleagues for their hard work and

dedication. And I would like to thank our supporters both locally and abroad, for making

2016/17 such an impactful year. It is only because of your involvement that we could

reach some of the world’s most forgotten children.

A heartfelt thanks from all of us at ASAP

Serai Herbst

Executive Director

Dear Friends and Supporters,

This past year there have been many calls on your generosity. The international community

has been asked to respond to natural disasters, famine, wars and the plight of refugees; and

they have done so. As the world’s media focuses on each new crisis its easy to forget the

ongoing deprivation and need that so motivated us when it first came to our attention. AIDS

still stalks Africa, children in the areas that ASAP work are still orphaned by the disease, many

still don’t have access to clean water, or shoes or enough to eat. They still need our help to

access the health and education that will enable them to become contributing members of

society and not statistics in some future crisis.

This Annual Report sets out the progress and consolidation that ASAP has achieved under the

leadership of our Executive Director, Serai Herbst. She has made enormous strides in

developing partnerships with the South African Government and other NGOs working in the

field and as the Community Based Organisations (CBOs) that ASAP works with, mature and

evolve, the emphasis shifts from dependancy to self sufficiency.

MESSAGE FROMTHE BOARD CHAIR by Susan Crewe


But even as one project achieves sustainability, there will be new ones desperately needing help from ASAP. The struggle to survive in

the Eastern Cape hasn’t gone away.

That is why we were so incredibly grateful for the magnificent response to the fund-raising lunch held in London last summer. This

bi-annual event has a unique atmosphere in that it is free - which is unusual for a fund-raiser! This year’s was held in a beautiful venue

in the centre of London and was attended by 450 people. The mixture of people - a handful of celebrities, glamorous socialites,

long-standing supporters, city gents and a lot of enthusiastic young things, sat at tables of ten decorated with colouful kikois

and jam-jars of flowers. The food was simple, copious amounts of salad followed by nice deserts accompanied by jugs of

water and a couple of bottles of wine. Nothing elaborate but of quality. Bob Geldof opened proceedings and was followed by

the actor Dominic West who delivered a brilliant ‘ask’. Serai, our Executive Director, gave an articulate and moving report

and our Founder, Priscilla Higham, also spoke from the heart and introduced our African guests. There was a terrific buzz

about the occasion and many guests commented on how moving and sincere the atmosphere was, it was also great fun.

The lunch raised £180,000 and more than one generous grant.

I’d like to think that an occasion such as this can be replicated in other cities in other countries because it

embodies the ethos of ASAP - a small charity punching above its weight, with modest overheads and focused

delivery.

With my heartfelt thanks once again to our enlightened supporters,

Yours sincerely

Susan Crewe

ASAP is a rural development NGO founded in 2003, supporting women in

remote villages caring for orphans and vulnerable children. We assist these

communities in taking action for themselves to address Health, Education and

Development challenges, and through Advocacy to have their needs recognised and voices heard.

WHERE WEWORKAlfred Nzo District, Matatiele,Eastern Cape Nyanga, Cape Town,Western Cape

THECHALLENGE


The rural villages where we work continue to suffer from the HIV

and AIDS pandemic, with over 1 in 5 girls age 15+ being HIV

positive and some 25 000 AIDS-related deaths in the area per

year. These devastating losses, compounded by extreme acute

levels of food and water insecurity, sees many households in

these remote communities struggle to survive day-to-day,

compounded by inadequate shelter against fierce winter

cold and persistent summer rains.

Lack of economic opportunity means little income is

available to support families, a problem made

worse by poor education. As AIDS continues to

claim the lives of parents and those best able to

work, the plight of the children is particularly

dire. Orphans in child-led households

are commonplace, and too many children

are left vulnerable.

ASAP works with rural

communities in Matatiele to

strengthen existing

provision for the basic health and educational

needs of children, to develop the capacity of

the communities to better support

themselves and to advocate for the needs

of these children and the women who

care for them.

GET INVOLVED

WHAT WEDO

We take a facilitative and process-driven approach, seeking

always to let the needs and voices of the women take

precedence, and to ensure cultural congruence and respect.

Our approach, developed and refined over 15 years of implementation, develops the agency of

the individual women and their community helping them to shape their own destinies while

strengthening social cohesion and increasing resilience. Communities develop the capacity

to bounce forward from the knocks that life brings, and also to act pro-actively, before

disaster strikes.

HOW WEDO IT

PROGRAMMES:HEALTH


86% of households in the region are food insecure. Inadequate nutrition leads to poor

immunity, putting vulnerable children at a higher risk for opportunistic diseases. Hungry

children cannot learn or develop as they should. ASAP supports a holistic approach to

addressing health issues in the communities we serve.

These include:

• Food gardens at community centres, providing nutritious fresh vegetables for meals. Boreholes were sunk to provide water for the

gardens at Nonkqubela and Reahasetjhaba.

• Daily balanced, nutritious meals totalling 51 918 meals served to 341 OVC this past year.

• Training of community members to understand the necessity of nutritious food to prevent stunting and improve health and

resilience.

• Access to healthcare through provision of transport to clinics and hospitals, maintenance of a baseline OVC health database and

working with clinics to provide continuity of care in the community.

• HIV/AIDS awareness, testing and counselling in collaboration with the Department of Health.

• Provision of blankets and mattresses, totaling 141 this past year • Counselling for children, addressing trauma, grief and emotional concerns - 10 children received on-going intensive counselling.

Training of Caregivers by Dlalanathi on Play for Communication about child development and how to communicate and interact

with children through play. The course includes doll making skills.

• Training of caregivers in Child Care, Project Management, Nutrition, HIV/AIDS, and Bookkeeping, Play for Communication and

Childhood Development.

- Supporting 75 caregivers to meet the needs of 1059 OVC at the Community Care Centres

- Supporting caregivers in making 1505 home visits within their immediate community.

Mabatho Ranosi, Secretary at Reahasetjhaba

exclaimed, "Our garden is doing so well now and we are not

even buying vegetables. We use what we have in the

garden."

Puleng Lebalo, Caregiver at Reahasetjhaba

said, “Our nutrition programme is going so well

and our children are healthy.”

PROGRAMMES:EDUCATION


To assist children in accessing the opportunities that education should provide, ASAP contributed:

• Classroom libraries for four schools with teacher training and support to assist with child literacy, benefitting 1378 learners.

• After-school care for 341 OVC, including holiday care programmes when OVC are at their most vulnerable

• School uniforms, as a child may not attend school without a school uniform in South Africa, totaling 54 school shoes and 77 uniforms

• Access to bursaries for Tertiary Education, in collaboration with the Rural Education Access Programme (REAP), for seven

learners in Grade 11 with six learners still continuing with the application process.

• Therapeutic art workshops during school holidays for children aged between six and twelve years old, encouraging

self-expression and the development of identity, with screening for children in need of counselling. Art on the Go is out partner

for these well loved workshops.

• Career Guidance workshops were conducted by Imithayelanga Youth Development, with 156 youth participants.

"I am so happy and my sister and I will be warm on

sister and herself no longer need to attend

Grade 8 in torn shoes.

Onamandla Tsalaze 12 years old and in

Grade 6 said, "On Monday I am going to be so

pretty in my new school uniform and I will look

like other kids."

PROGRAMMES:COMMUNITYDEVELOPMENT


ASAP works closely with communities to help them

identify the skills gaps and needs, that need

addressing in order for them to achieve their

priorities. We provide training directly or bring in

partners to assist. In the past year, we facilitated:

• Initiating and rolling out the first light boxes in partnership with Project 90by2030. This pilot in Nonkqubela is providing light in

dark buildings to enable kids to do their homework indoors and participate in after school programmes. Further roll-out will

continue in the upcoming year.

• Gardening workshop by Ikhaya Garden, a youth led organization in Khayelitsha, Cape Town took place in July for 156 Youth in our

partner CBOs in Matatiele.

• Participation in the annual Cell C Take a Girl Child to Work Day with 8 girls spending the day in an office and experiencing what it

feels to work in careers of interest.

• Helping secure six birth certificates for children, six IDs for guardians, and 14 child support grants.

We were also pleased to be able to invest in the skills of our staff to further assist communities, including:

• Training two staff members in the Asset Based Community Develop (ABCD) Approach, to inform the methods we use in

highlighting and strengthening community assets as we move each partnership forward.

• Training four staff members in Facilitating Development Processes. We recognise that each community is so different, one size

doesn’t fit all when it comes to solutions. So while we use the proven ASAP Model as our guide, we also recognise nuances and

meet the communities where they are, and rather than leading them in a pre-determined direction, responding to their interests

and needs.

them and they can receive a child support grant. I am very

grateful for all the help I am getting here and now my

grandchildren have school uniforms." Mirriam Tekete, a

guardian to two vulnerable children who attend ASAP

supported Nonkqubela community centre.

PROGRAMMES:ADVOCACY


The underlying societal and structural causes

of the problems that our beneficiary

communities face are also deserving of

attention. While our resources are scant in comparison with the scale of

these problems, we work to raise the voices of the women, children and

communities to those with the power and responsibility to address them.

While we recognise that we cannot speak for these women and children, we work to centre their voices in these dialogues, and ensure

they are heard.

Our advocacy includes:

• Lobbying government provide services

• Holding government to account for lapses in service delivery and other shortcomings.

• Forming strategic partnerships to champion the rights of the marginalised

• Assisting women with representation at certain meetings to ensure their voices are heard.

In a recent instance, the local Ward Councillor, Mr Mdingi, visited

Nonkqubela CBO on invitation by ASAP. He was very pleased to

learn of the project and that the caregivers were doing such

wonderful work in the community. On seeing the garden with

unfinished borehole and storage tank, he arranged to accompany the

caregivers to the provincial offices to help secure a pump. He also

pledged his support whenever they need him. ASAP assists with

establishing, maintaining communications and follow-up in these

relationships, which have been beneficial with establishing school libraries

and in other projects.

Since 2003, African Solutions Foundation has supported thousands of women in remote, rural villages of South Africa in caring for some of the world’s most marginalised children.

By capacitating the women and their networks through a facilitative developmental process, ASAP sees them reach autonomy and continue delivering a lasting, positive impact on the health and education of the vulnerable children in their communities.

"I felt like less than the other children, and I

was ashamed I couldn’t go to school. ASAP

bought me a new uniform and I’ve attended school

all year. I’m learning to read and I don’t feel stupid

anymore." – Samkelo, age 7
