Help Us Uplift Those Who Are Most Vulnerable
The vision of Project Purpose is to see those we assist become independent individuals who are able to provide for their families as they live out their God-designed purpose.
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,
who have been called according to his purpose.”
Romans 8:28 (NIV)

Volunteers & Contributors
Active and completed projects
Project Purpose is a non-profit organisation that aims to help individuals find their purpose and end the cycle of poverty, by utilizing educational opportunities and skills development with a personal relationship-based approach.
The focus is to provide a hand up rather than a handout.
Project Purpose works on a project basis where each project can be viewed on the website and relevant social media pages. Each project outlines a cause and tells the story of the individual(s) that require assistance, as well as the various resources needed to provide adequate solutions. The public is encouraged to invest in a project by:
- sharing their skills, network, or resources
- volunteering their time
- contributing financially
