How can you help

The Kgosi Neighbourhood Foundation does not charge families anything for the services it provides.  As such the foundation is entirely dependent on support from corporations, foundations, and individuals. There are three ways you, or your organization can support the work of the Kgosi Neighbourhood Foundation:  financial support, gifts in kind, and volunteer services.  

Financial Support

Donations are always welcome.  Please visit our current needs page for our bank details. The following list gives a sense of what things will cost in 2019:

  • R13 333 ($1 100) a year to care for one child. This includes preschool education, two hot meals and a snack for the child, visits to the doctor, and assessment and skills development for the child's caregiver.
  • R60/day to feed the children and staff of the Wings of Hope School.

Gifts in Kind

We can cut our operational costs signficantly through gifts in kind.  Donations of food and stationery for the school and office make a tremendous positive impact on our monthly budget. Food donations may come in the form of rice, tinned fish, pasta, instant porridge and sunflower oil. Other needed gifts include:  white interior/exterior paint, cleaning supplies, computers, educational toys, and preschool books.

Volunteers

If you, or your organization has the time, we would appreciate your volunteer services. In particular, we are seeking volunteers who can assist parents to improve their conversational English, and tutors who can assist our Wings of Hope School graduates with their homework.
