The Early Care Foundation, based in Bryanston, will be celebrating exceptional home-grown talent in order to raise funds.
On 16 February the foundation will host an evening with internationally acclaimed Buskaid, Soweto String Ensemble, with a guest appearance from DJ Fresh.
The proceeds of this event will be used to support the Early Care Foundation’s teacher development work in informal crèches in disadvantaged communities of South Africa.
Education, and especially early education, is vital to us uplifting and empowering our society. Many South African children still do not have access to quality preschool education. The trust has assisted in developing early childcare development for over 70 years. The foundation hopes to better equip childcare minders with skills and knowledge to care for young children and ensure proper stimulation has ensured that young children will benefit for years to come. With support from the fundraising initiatives, the foundation hopes to extend their efforts to thousands of vulnerable children.
Dr Tshepo Motsepe, South Africa’s First Lady and chairman of Early Care Foundation, said, “This concert is a wonderful opportunity for us, together with the Trustees of the Early Care Foundation, to spend an evening enjoying Buskaid’s home-grown talent while shining a spotlight on the need for ECD.”
