Realistic

Realistic 1. Realistic rebuilding life skills centre was established by a former employee of the South African Department of Correctional Services.

with a purpose to minimize the incidence of crime by preventing the dynamic of repeat offending which contributes substantially to the High Crime rate in South Africa. Basically we change their mindset into living a positive and productive life away from crime. Then we also fight hard by rehabilitating the youth at risk of sustance abuse. We recruit these addicts and potential addicts, put them in

to our programmes and some go back to school, others study further and some are fulltime employed in good companies. At REALISTIC we believe that : No one is perfect...AKUKHO NZWANA INGENASIPHAKO!

2. Realistic child and youth care centre is a non-profit organisation that operates as a residential placement facility for vulnerable male children who have suffered in forms of violent abuse and neglect, who are in need of care and protection. The scope of our offered services covers the Western Cape metropolitan area and the Winelands community. The centre has capacity to accommodate 45 young men, ranging from 3 to 17 years of age. In 2018 Realistic in partnership with the department of social development tookover the St Francis children’s home and renamed it to Realistic child and youth care centre

3.Realistic half way house
The programme was established in 2016 in partnership with South African Department of Correctional Services (DSC). Solomon Madikane, realised that many ex-inmates re-offended after their release from prison because they are unable to reintegrate into their families and/or communities. The Halfway House for parolees has been successfully implemented to enable parolees reconcile with their families and re-integrated into the communities through various programmes and to provide eex-inmates with opportunities to not recidivism again.

This Mandela Day, we were honoured to welcome the incredible team from Nexia SAB&T to Realistic CYCC. 💙

Their visit was filled with generosity, compassion, and meaningful connection as they spent time with our children and made a wonderful contribution to our home.

Their generous donation included goodie bags, blankets, toiletries, soccer balls, sweets, chips, and other treats, bringing excitement and comfort to the boys we care for.

We also had the privilege of showing the team around our Farmhouse, which is currently being rebuilt. Sharing our vision for this space and the future it holds for our children made their visit even more special.

Thank you, Nexia SAB&T, for choosing to spend your Mandela Day with us. Your kindness, generosity, and willingness to invest in the lives of vulnerable children will leave a lasting impact.

Together, we are building brighter futures. One act of kindness at a time. 💙

⚽🌍 What an unforgettable day at Realistic Children’s Home!

We were honoured to welcome 27 students from Uruguay, who spent the day connecting with our children through the universal language of football. Laughter, teamwork, and new friendships filled our five-a-side courts as everyone enjoyed friendly matches and created memories that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for taking the time to visit us, share your energy, and make such a positive impact on our children. We hope this is the beginning of a lasting friendship between our communities. ❤️

Football has a beautiful way of bringing people together no matter where in the world they come from. 🌎⚽

On Saturday we celebrated a truly special initiative by Mziyabo, who chose to spend his birthday giving back to children in the community ❤️♟️

He visited our home to teach the children the fundamentals of chess, creating a fun and engaging learning experience filled with encouragement, patience, and meaningful interaction. To make the day even more special, he generously gifted the chess boards to the children afterwards.

We are truly grateful for individuals who choose to celebrate their special moments by making a positive impact in the lives of others.

From all of us at Realistic CYCC, thank you for your kindness and generosity and happy belated birthday once again 🎉🙏
