The study on evaluation of income-generating projects was conducted on ten (10) income-generating projects in Mogale City in the Gauteng Province. It was conducted during July and August 2007.
The study was evaluative research, and a quantitative approach was used to conduct the study. A purposive sampling type of non-probability sampling was utilized to select respondents within the projects. Five (5) respondents were selected from each project. A questionnaire was used as a data collection method and was administered by the researcher to the respondents. A total of fifty (50) questionnaires were distributed to respondents from ten (10) various projects that did sewing, vegetable gardening and brick-making.
The results of the study have indicated that the projects in Mogale City are generating an income in order to address poverty. However, it is not effectively eradicated, as some projects are not generating enough money. This means that the money that respondents receive does not meet all their needs
