July 2022.

Radio Namakwaland 93.4 FM was in conversation with Anchel Opperman of Loeriesfontein Khobab Windplaas and Joanie Mostert of Sonneblom Service Center, talking about the “Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) Programme” and the work that the Sunflower Service Center does in the Loeriesfontein community.

The ABCD programme was launched with a campaign which drew on community change agents that were already working to improve the lives of their fellow residents and wanting to make a further positive difference.

To date, the programme has helped a large group of local entrepreneurs through business training courses, support and funding, all aimed at ultimately increasing the sustainability of micro entities in the town.
