Reach for Life Appeal The LGBTI organisation, Reach For Life, which is based at the Manenberg People’s Centre has been in operation for five years helping people living with HIV and AIDS, and has only recently received NPO status. The organisation is staffed by about ten volunteers and while proposals have been sent out to funders like HIVOS, they are still hoping for operational funding, said co-ordinator and founder Lolita Marcelee. “Our main focus is to build a shelter for LGBTI people in Manenberg. The need is there and we are working on raising the funds,” Lolita said. The organisation is appealing for office equipment like desks, chairs, computers, shelves and filing cabinets. For more information, contact Lolita Marcelee on 073 502 8925 or on email at
