• KHDO is ‘a registered welfare organisation. The Ministry of Health and Social Services approved an application for funding and we are very grateful for this.
• As the aims of KHDO is to uplift the living standard of the homeless, we provide them with food and clothes. Previously we could only do this twice a month but now this is done daily at the Church of the Nazarene in Khomasdal.
• The registration of the homeless is one of the first things that we need to do.
• We then invite them to come to the Church of the Nazarene.
• Here, they first sit and listen to the Gospel message. We invited the pastors of Khomasdal to come and help with serving the Word of God.

• The volunteers try where possible to go into conversation with the homeless people and in this way befriend them.
• We are in partnership with the Philippi Trust Namibia who will come and serve the people with Christian Counselling.
• Possibility of starting a green scheme there at the Church of the Nazarene.
