Show your love and support the pre-school
KYA SAND – Build the Future Pre-school needs your love and support on 14 February.
February is the month for love and people have different ways of showing their love.
Build the Future Container Pre-school in Kya Sand has 39 children and they need some donations from the public.
The pre-school is the brainchild of Build the Future, a non-governmental organisation.
The NGO will hold a Valentine’s Day Work Day is on 14 February from 8.30am–12.30pm.
They will replant their vegetable garden and revamp the recently donated jungle gym.
“Come and show some love to the Kya Sand community children, who will be at the Build the Future Container Preschool, dying to have some weekend play time with you, your family and your friends,” said Philip Shapiro.
Shapiro is asking the public to “Pay it forward this Valentine’s Day to those less fortunate.”
He reckons that people should join this day of community upliftment and help with little projects around the pre-school and grounds.
Here are the items that the NGO is looking for:
- A large pot for cooking
- Sandpit sand (cost R40 a bag or a load of river sand)
- Plastic bowls and metal teaspoons
- Large batteries for the tape recorder
- Any old / beach umbrellas as shade is very much needed
- Sun hats
- Piece of wood suitable for a balance beam
- Plastic tables and chairs – we need another 15 chairs and 4 more tables .
- A sponsor for another large container
- Contributions to the teachers’ and helpers’ salaries
- Anyone who can volunteer to teach physical education, music, dance class or reading stories to the children (minimum one term commitment please!)
- Cupcakes for the children’s birthdays
- Handyman skills will be much appreciated.
Any other suitable donations will be gladly accepted too.
