My Jozi Walk Tackles Homelessness Together
Story 1
The City of Johannesburg is calling on residents to support efforts to address homelessness through this year’s My Jozi Walk, taking place this Sunday.
The initiative encourages participants to use Mi-Change vouchers instead of giving cash directly to people living on the streets.
The digital vouchers provide access to essentials such as food, hygiene products and shelter, while connecting recipients to services including counselling, skills training and employment support.
Organisers say the programme aims to turn public donations into structured support that helps people move towards long-term independence.
