Description
The Dignity Project is a platform for the citizens of Cape Town to engage with the homeless people of our city in a meaningful way. Run by Danny Oosthuizen, who has spent years on the streets and who gives unique perspectives into the lives of the homeless.
He worked patiently with the homeless people involved in this project in an effort to debunk stereotypes, myths and misconceptions and to face issues we don’t readily want to confront.
The vision of the Dignity Project is for the homeless to be part of the community again - to restore dignity, trust and for all of us to weather the homeless storm together.
