Iliso Care Society

This Monday I was fortunate to visit the Iliso Care Society, a small non-proffit organization run by Vivian Zilo out of her home in Khyelitsha's Site C. Her efforts were truly inspiring. The organization operates with the help of several volunteers who make meals five days a week, providing food for TB patients, HIV/AIDS victims, elderly, homless, orphans and vulnerable children in the the area. School children who don't have access to food at home are also provided with a soup meal during their mid-day break. The society also offers a support group for those who are HIV positive so that they can share their experiences in a comfortable home-based setting.










Vivian is always eager to share her project and experience with visitors. If you are interested in hearing more about what she does, feel free to send me an email, or contact Vivian directly at ilisovivian@yahoo.com . It was wonderful to find such a generous and giving group of people, so interested in improving the lives of the community around them.
