To date it has established and supported projects in Vrygrond Muizenberg, Wallacedene, KTC, Citrusdal, Khayelitsha, Manenberg, Eerste Rivier, and Gugulethu. Once the infrastructure is in place, the focus is to help the caregivers improve their teaching skills so that quality educational programmes can be implemented. Yabonga does not cover ongoing expenses or salaries for the teachers. The centres are run as a business by the community organisations who are responsible for the collection of fees and government subsidies. There must be community ownership as it is important that the local residents support the project and pride themselves on running a Yabonga educare centre. We work closely with the communities and other non-profit initiatives who are encouraged to offer food, health services and other forms of support |
