In our country there are many situations where both parents are forced to work, and still not afford to pay for their children to be cared for. As a result many of these children are either left at home with older siblings or with neighbours. Sadly these children are often not cared for and most receive no stimulation in these important formative years.
The pre-school and skills centre represents a melding of the efforts of generous Corporate investment from Altech Autopage Cellular (R1 million), foreign volunteers and local community leaders. The centre is nearly complete, a project that from start to completion will have only taken 4 months to design and build.
The new centre will provide highly-subsidized pre-school facilities to children selected by local social workers based on their need. It will also be a youth centre providing HIV/AIDS education and life skills training for the youth plus free adult skills training to the local community.
