A day of history & blessings in Montagu. More than 5000 sarmies, 5000 tins of soup & 1000 cups of soup served.

We are celebrated Heritage Day on 24 Sept 2020 in Montagu surrounds with traditional Cape Malay Curry, Koeksisters and lots of love.

We thank each and everyone who contributed towards making dads feel special in this covid time of this tourist & wine making town's closure of businesses for many months where no one could work to support their families. Some of them are single dads doing a moms job.

We celebrated our rural women for Women's Day 8 & 9 August 2020 in Montagu. Honouring significant women in RAM's life both supporters, volunteers and beneficiaries. Together we make a difference.

This year has been a gruelling heartbreaking year for many, with the COVID-19 pandemic bringing lockdowns and closing down businesses. This year saw backbreaking soup kitchens and food parcel handouts, weekly and even bi-weekly drives from Cape Town to Montagu and back, our trusty bus (called Sibusiso) making many trips filled to the brim with food and goods.

A tragic event is turning into a joyous celebration. When a young man’s house burnt to the ground on the 6th June 2020, his wedding plans seemed impossible. We decided to play cupid... On Thursday 25 June we were part of this fairytale wedding at 16h00 and then after, the hand over of their new Wendy home that has been generously donated by angels, so many helping hands to make this possible. A home handover & a wedding, a first for RAM - Rescue Among Many!

Montagu is also plagued by social ills like gender based violence, bullying and drug abuse. To try and change mindsets and create a dialogue around these issues, RAM in association with 1000 Women 1 Voice decided to make a day of it, and screen the movie based on Ellen Pakkies' life story, combined with a talk by Ellen Pakkies herself to bring awareness and to open the conversation about these issues

Check out some of our amazing projects that we implemented for Mandela Day 2019. Thank you to all those who contributed to ensure the day was a success. So many schools, people, and even our furry friends were touched by your generous donations and support in ensuring a better tomorrow for them.

Youth Day gifting on the 17th of June 2019 in Montagu - hosted at W.A. Rossouw Primary School. Thank you to Principal Adams and staff for giving us the honor of putting smiles on the faces of the children.
We built and furnished a small sick room for a rural school in Montagu. Every sick child needs a safe place to recover, the distance to go home for these rural kids is vast - often walked by them on foot.
