Keeping Little Brinks Watertight: Roof Repairs for a Westlake Institution

Place of Safety

Little Brinks has been a cornerstone of child safety and community upliftment in Westlake, Cape Town for years. It’s far more than a place of safety — it’s a hub of hope that touches countless lives across multiple programmes and services.

Beyond providing immediate shelter to vulnerable children, Little Brinks runs community projects, educational and skills development programmes, feeding schemes, soup kitchens, school feeding, clothing and food collection, homeless assistance, sports programmes, counselling services, job creation initiatives, and so much more. It’s a remarkable operation sustained by dedicated people.

When the roof needed urgent attention, the Malachite Foundation was glad to help fund the repairs. A secure, weatherproof roof may sound like a practical fix, but for an organisation doing this much good, it means uninterrupted services, protected children, and staff who can focus on what matters most.

Little Brinks does extraordinary work, quietly and consistently. We’re honoured to play even a small part in keeping their doors open and their roof intact. Find out more at littlebrinks.co.za.
