STRAATWERK came into being in the late 1960's developing out of a church youth organisation of the Dutch Reformed Church in Wynberg STRAATWERK believes Christ is the Word of God, Christ is the image of God and Christ is the wisdom of God The focus area of STRAATWERK and the meeting area with our target population is the city centre of Cape Town In view of the diversity of our city it is a privilege to be able to reach out to people irrespective of race, age, religion, culture or sexual orientation
The Nation Builder status has been afforded to a few select organisations – of which Straatwerk is one – making this a symbol that portrays excellence in the not-for-profit and socio-economic development sector. Nation Builder is an initiative that recognises the powerful role business plays in shaping the future of our country, and aims to support and empower businesses to have the greatest impact on our nation through good social investment. Your organisation can become part of this movement where South Africans build a nation by collaborating with accredited Nation Builder organisations that are bringing about change for a better future and a thriving nation.
