About Us
History The Ark City of Refuge opened its doors in 1992 in response to the extremely high rate of homelessness and unemployment in the Western Cape. It is unique among organisations and is the largest of its kind. Since our inception, some 35,000 people have walked through our gates in need of help. Currently, we average about 800 people on-site. ![]() Objectives
