Tshwane Leadership Foundation
TLF is an inner city community organization committed to socially inclusive urban transformation. We have demonstrated our commitment to the city’s most vulnerable population since 1993 and created innovative programmes for women and girls, children and youth, and homeless communities.
TLF consists of 10 projects, all working towards healthy urban communities that are socially inclusive and viable, and towards a policy environment that would enable people’s inclusion and protection of their rights. Furthermore, all the projects seek to address issues of poverty, provide access to people who are poor, vulnerable and needy, and to break the vicious cycles of victimhood and poverty for hundreds of vulnerable individuals every year.
The activities of the projects include, but are not limited to: outreach work, drop-in centres, transitional and special needs housing, life and social skills training, palliative and geriatric care, and assisting to gain long term housing tenure.
