In 2002 over �34,000 was raised in response to the emergency appeal. This included donations from many individuals.

Hlekweni would also like to thank all those who have rendered services to the organisation. Thanks are also due to the staff who have left but have given of their best to Hlekweni during their time with us. Finally, for the sacrifices of the staff and board members and consultants who have given many hours voluntarily to keep the organisation afloat and the Hlekweni spirit alive - we are most grateful.
