In Swellendam at a Catholic convent

Today we drove drove to Swellendam to look at a piece of property that the Catholic Church is looking to get rid of. It would make a great community centre for economic empowerment and social development. It is a lovely sunny day!

Hi Arthur,

The setting, and the little town, are ideal. However, the farm buildings need a truck load of work. The price of the farm is very good (considering where it is and what one gets)...

As for partnership, I know that the local community would love to partner with any interested party. They're particularly keen to see some poverty alleviation and skills development projects take place.

Let me know (via email) if you'd like to be put in contact with the main players.

Rich blessings,

Dion

How far a drive is it to Cape Town?
