A Few Words
About the Masakhe

MASAKHE (Xhosa: We build) is a community self-empowerment organisation in Nyanga East and Lower Crossroads.

MASAKHE has emerged as a response to our difficult economic situation in the townships. There are not enough jobs for people and unemployment is very high. We came together as concerned community members and decided to form an organisation to help ourselves and many others who are desperately looking for income. Our organisation was registered as a NPO in February 2011.
