Photos - Townships in Cape Town

Below are photos of several townships in our area where many of our friends live and serve. Personally, we focus primarily on Ocean View, with some of our time spent in Masiphumelele.

“Red Hill” - a shack community of 1,000 residents

“Ocean View” - During apartheid 30,000 people were forced to move from their homes to – a low income community plagued with unemployment and poverty. More info about Ocean View...

"Masiphumelele" Township - Population: 25,000 – 35,000 - it's estimated that 30-40% of the community are infected with HIV
"Khayelitsha" township - Home to 2 million people
