2025 marked the sixth year of operation for G‑WCS as we continued our mission to lend a helping hand through food parcels to those who need them most in the informal settlements of Windhoek and Okahandja. Below is an overview of our six‑year performance. In the last six years, G-WCS secured approximately N$177 550 funds for all distributions and visits. These funds were secured through the generosity of our sponsors and supporters, as well as through fundraising activities such as the marathon and donation papers. This amount covered all administrative and operational expenses throughout the years, including food parcel distributions, visits to orphanages and soup kitchens, and annual or monthly fees related to the website, BIPA, and bank charges. Therefore, over the six‑year period, G‑WCS assisted 431 households, excluding individuals supported on the streets at times, six orphanage visits, thirteen soup kitchen visits, and one sponsorship.
