The Tshwane Leadership Foundation (TLF) was launched in 1993 and is committed to model innovative social change and a high degree of social inclusion in the capital city of South Africa. TLF is an umbrella organization that comprises 7 programmes and 5 institutions, all working towards healthy urban communities that are socially inclusive and viable, and towards a policy environment that would enable social attachment and human rights protection.

Our work includes support towards women and young girls at-risk, homeless people, women and men involved in commercial sex work, children in need, people living with HIV/AIDS and chronic mental illness, as well as residents of inner city social housing projects and economic development projects.

• The Potter´s House: The Potter´s House was founded 1993 as the first non-racial shelter in the city, to provide holistic support for women in crisis and their children. It has become a place where women and children are empowered to discover their full potential and be re-integrated into society.
• Lerato House: Lerato House was established in 1998 to provide a transitional residential facility for young girls at-risk in the city centre. We seek to restore and empower 70 young girls per year to take up their rightful place in society, or within their families.

Our health unit currently manages Rivoningo Care Centre, accommodating 20 homeless people who are diagnosed as terminally ill.
