In a bid to combat the challenging circumstances faced by many in Botshabelo, the birth of Retshepile Multifunctional NPO brings hope and tangible solutions.

The village in Section-S, Botshabelo, has been grappling with high unemployment and a dearth of entrepreneurial and technical skills among its residents, despite government training and funding initiatives.

Retshepile Multifunctional objectives are a comprehensive approach, starting with the fight against gender-based violence and securing food security funds from the Department of Social Development. However, the heart of their work lies in empowering widows and youth with essential business and technical skills, facilitating their business registrations, and providing opportunities for self-sufficiency.

One remarkable development is the “Batjha Itekeng” agricultural cooperative, driven by women and youth. Their ambition is to cultivate vegetables, nourish their families, and supply the broader community in Botshabelo, Thaba Nchu, and Bloemfontein. It’s a grand vision, with plans to reach the Bloemfontein Fresh Market.
