Helping communities to help themselves : the case of Eleos.Stuart, Lauren 27 September 2013 (has links)
Current literature asserts that recipients of social services in South Africa are characterised
by their history, race and ethnicity (Pharoah, 2007; Scheurmans and Visser, 2005). This
study attempted to either confirm or challenge such assertions, based on the experiences
and strategies implemented by Eleos, a unique non‐ profit organisation that is entrenched in
communities that are diverse. The primary aim of this study was to explore the ethos of
Eleos, in its interventions to address poverty in underprivileged communities. The study
drew from two groups of participants. The first sample of eight participants was drawn from
the two beneficiary communities of Eleos. One project is located in Booysens West and the
other in Danville. The second group of participants were key informants who were drawn
from the management committee as well as representatives of the individual projects. The
research instruments took the form of two different semi‐structured interview schedules
with open‐ended questions. One for key informants and another for beneficiaries. The
research design that was used in the study was the case study design and was exploratory in
nature. The collected data was transcribed and analysed using ‘thematic content analysis’ or
‘conceptual analysis’. Main findings indicated that donors seemed to impose a more
radicalized view of the world, more so than the beneficiaries and organisation it self.
