Hello CCC Family,
Do you agree that the current state of the world often leads many people to lose hope, regardless of where they are located? Hope can dwindle due to various factors such as financial difficulties, poor health, abuse, or homelessness. I cannot answer this question for you, and I am uncertain if you can empathize with the experience of losing hope.
If you have never encountered a situation that made you feel hopeless, perhaps try to connect with your inner self and imagine a scenario that evokes compassion for those who have. If you have ever felt this way, know that you are not alone, and there is a solution awaiting you. What is the solution? CCC is consistently here to share community stories from both near and far that will fill you with hope, inspiration, love, and motivation!
What is the meaning of HOPE?
Hope is the companion of power and mother of success; for those who so hope strongly have within him the gift of miracles. Stephen Ambrose
Alexandra Spiderweb + C.CoatesConsulting equals Hope
As some of you might know, CCC went on a two-week business trip to Johannesburg, South Africa in June 2024. (How exciting, isn't it?!?)
What you may not know is that CCC recognized a need and chose to BE THE CHANGE that the world needs. Around the world, numerous individuals and organizations are facing various challenges, with financial constraints being a major issue in ninety percent of cases. While Africa is undeniably impressive, many people and small businesses are struggling due to financial limitations.
Have you ever considered this? "CCC, we encounter financial difficulties here in the United States just like they do in Africa."
I agree with you; indeed, we do—although the situations in Africa are quite different from those in the United States. In the U.S., there are plenty of grants, scholarships, and loans available for application (even though, in many cases, obtaining them is very challenging, there is still a ray of hope). In contrast, in South Africa, many eligible organizations are unable to access grants or scholarships. Why is that? Unfortunately, this is due to the scarcity of grants and scholarships being offered to small businesses and non-profits.
CCC is getting rich!!
ASW is a small non-profit organization, operating on a limited budget, just like many other non-profits and small businesses. Despite financial constraints, ASW was willing to pay for CCC's graphics, marketing, and advertising services. The results delivered by CCC exceeded ASW's expectations, surprising many who may have assumed otherwise.
The ASW committee presented its mission and vision, which, upon review by CCC, sparked motivation and excitement. It became clear that CCC's services could positively impact many lives. Despite assumptions that CCC was getting rich from Africa, the truth is that CCC sponsored its services to ASW. This unique business connection is even more special considering CCC is a for-profit, woman-minority-owned small business. This decision was made in July 2023 and has proven to be one of the best decisions CCC has ever made!
Did you know that riches aren't valued in currency?

CCC is overwhelmed...
People showing genuine appreciation are rare to find in the world we live in today. Alexandra Spiderweb respects CCC as a business; they respect the services offered, and they respect anything or anyone connected to CCC. If that isn't showing genuine appreciation, I don't know what is. ASW has shown appreciation for the services offered to help their communities and the people in the communities. (How amazing is that!?!).
You're cordially invited to explore some significant events that took place in Thembisa Township involving CCC, ASW, Home of HOPE, and Siyabathanda Children's Home! A special appreciation to Thembisa Online for capturing CCC in collaboration with these organizations! (Don't forget to follow Thembisa Online on Facebook).
