Imizamo Yethu

The community living conditions were improved by the Niall Mellon Township Trust with their People's Housing Process in 2002. This non-profit organisation based in Ireland sent volunteers to build several hundred basic homes for individuals in Imizamo Yethu. == Tourism industry ==

Residents provide tours of the preschool, day care, barber shop, auto shop, orphanage, grocery store and local pub. Many locals will also invite tourists into their homes where they sell hand-made bead work and jewellery. == 2017 Fire==

On 11 and 12 March 2017, a large section of Imizamo Yethu was devastated by fires that killed three people, destroyed 3,500 homes and displaced 15,000 people. ==References==
