PREGNANCY CARE
We provide a platform from which women experiencing pregnancy crisis can make informed choices. This includes counselling and information giving as well as ante and post natal education and support.
FAMILY TRANSFORMATION
We support families in crisis, preparing couples for marriage, helping people discover their identity and purpose, mentoring men, women and children of all ages and also equipping parents with healthy parenting skills that can be passed down generations.

There are a variety of causes that we offer and while we appreciate any form of donation, we know that there may be a specific cause that pulls on your heart strings. Feel free to choose a cause that you’d like to help us grow in.
How to get involved
There are many ways for you to get involved, whether it is on a small or large scale. Our organisation requires sponsorship and funding to grow and continue to assist the needs. We are also in need of volunteers to be part of our teams as we assist so many children and adults with our services. There is no assistance that is too small for us.
“When it comes to speaking out for the voiceless, and ministering to women in crisis, I believe this ministry is at the forefront of tapping into the needs in their community. There understanding of purpose drives them to accomplish their mission. I strongly believe their heartbeat beats in rhythm with the Father’s Heart.”

“Wat ‘n spesiale organisasie is Plight nie, en wat ‘n voorreg om te weet daar is ‘n veilige plek om heen te gaan vir alle vroue oud en jonk van Port Alfred Gemeenskap. ‘n Plek war vroue en meisies ondersteuning en hulp kan kry deur profesionele en goed opgeleide personeel in tye waar vrees paniek enige mens verkeerde besluite kan laat neem, is hierdie mense beskikbaar om leiding te gee.
Ons wil Teneil Carter van Plight centre en al die vrywilligers bedank vir hul onbaatsugtige diens en dat hul hierdie instansie op die been gebring het as ook vir hul toegewydheid.”
