Sometimes a lack of funding means we dont have much progress to report - for us the ability to provide children with school uniforms is one that gives us the chance to be part of providing a child with dignity, and an ability to stay in school and focus on what is important... EDUCATION. After all - as Tata Madiba said " “Education is the great engine of personal development. It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that the son of a mine worker can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers can become the president of a great nation. It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another.” He also said “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
We believe our school uniform projects allows us to support children in getting an education, and growing to spread their wings and chance the world. If you can consider sponsoring a Uniform for a child, please click through to our donation page and do so.
In the meantime - our education continues, in our outreach school as well as at the Nourish library and aftercare center. A focus recently has not only been environmental education, but also learning about health, hygeiene and their bodies; learning to respect it and take care of it.
Thank you as always to our donors who make this project possible!
