Susters4Life was founded by the four Thompson sisters, Lesley, Reneé, Toni and Nashreen. The work began with ad-hoc community projects in Worcester and Laingsburg, with a focus on helping women in these rural communities.
We organised numerous projects around Mandela Day, Human Rights Day, Mother’s Day, Eid and Christmas, all of which we funded from our own pockets. As we became more involved in the lives of the local families, we realised just how widespread the need was for women’s empowerment and education.
