Freddy Trout on relocating to George in the Eden district of the Western Cape was struck by the contrast of the
natural beauty of the area and the devastation caused by substance abuse amongst both youth and adults. In
August 2006 Mr Trout launched the PASA initiative. In 2008 Wayne Windvoël, Freddy’s youngest brother joined
PASA after recovering from a 10-year substance addiction. PASA was registered as an NPO by the Department of
Social Development in 2009, the organisation received PBO status in 2012. PASA is a BEE Level 1 contributor.
PASA serves clients in the following areas; George, Knysna, Mossel bay, Kleinmond, Cape Town, Citrusdal,
Clanwilliam and Vredendal.
It is said, “It is easier to raise strong children than repair broken men”, and with this in mind PASA adopted a strong
prevention and awareness focus with respect to substance abuse.

In 2010 we invested in a multi-media package called “BOUND” and received training to facilitate the life skills
programme in schools. The package consists of a short film of about 16 minutes, manuals and various other DVD’s
that we use to impact young people’s lives. This program is endorsed by the National Qualifications Authority and
endorsed by the Provincial Drug Forum.
The manual is written out of the four main scenes of the movie and extensive research has been done on all aspects
of teenage smoking, drinking, risky sexual activity and drug abuse. The result is a comprehensive, informative,
exciting multimedia package written in such a way that a teenager can identify with the material and get involved in
the program. Our children do not have the skills to deal with a changing society, family relationships
