Empowering Communities and Creating Change: The No-Stone House: A Keystone of Hope in Kalbaskraal
A keystone refers to a central element or component that holds everything else together, much like the keystone in an arch that supports and stabilizes the entire structure. It is a critical piece that ensures strength, integrity, and balance.
In the village of Kalbaskraal, amidst poverty and challenges, stands the remarkable No-Stone House—a place of transformation, hope, and community. At its core are the dedicated individuals who selflessly serve, uplift, and empower those in need. Jo-Anne, Mandy, Hannetjie, Gert, Nicholaas, Ronel, Annemie, Noelene, Hannah, Estelle, Jason, Donna, Gerswin, Anine, Elenor, Ian, Yvette, Andrew, Dianna, and many more embody the spirit of compassion and make a tangible difference in the lives of others.
The No-Stone House is more than a physical structure; it is a keystone—a vital element that supports and strengthens the entire community. Within its walls, lives are touched, nourished, and transformed. The Daily Bread Feeding Scheme, led by Jo-Anne and her crew, tirelessly provides meals for approximately 400 people, young and old, each day. The No-Stone Shoppe, guided by Annemie, Noelene, Hannah, and Estelle, offers a space for resale and gifting, generating funds that fuel the care of animals at Hannah’s Haven. And soon, the quad will come alive with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee as the No-Stone Caffee opens its doors, providing a welcoming space for people to connect and unwind.
Behind the scenes, Jason, Donna, Gerswin, and the entire team work tirelessly to ensure the smooth operations of the No-Stone House and its associated initiatives. Their unwavering commitment and passion bring stability and continuity to the collective efforts. Additionally, the support from Yvette, Andrew, Dianna, and others bolsters the cause and strengthens the bonds of the village.
