Golden Gate
Remarkable has started in the year 2018 with a soup kitchen in Golden Gate. We have seen the great challenge of unemployed in the area and has started outreach in the area by starring prayer meetings in homes having one on one counceling sessions. Our feeding has increased from soup kitchens to more feedings weekly in the area. Remarkable became a household brand in every house in Golden gate. We have different events weekly that involved the whole family and can see the growth within the lives and stability coming

Families are the foundation of strong communities. Our parenting workshops provide guidance on communication, discipline, and emotional support, equipping parents with the tools to raise confident, resilient, and healthy children.
