They work in conjunction with Social Development Schools in the areas all form part of the program.
For the children we, Hope-4-Kids gave them a 50 small packs of ruler, pen, eraser color pencils, coakies, pritt and a rubber.


The children from Double Decker Pre-Primary, Kilchberg (Switzerland) raised money with a Christmas market in December 2008 to support underprivileged children in South Africa.

With the money raised we were able to get 50 mattresses which we still received at a discounted price. On the other photos you can see the children with a paper flower, the “Flower of Hope”, as they called it, which was sent to them by the pre primary children from Switzerland.

Community Creations(which is a non-profit organisation), made 500 ponchos, the material sponsored by Cape Union Mart.
I gave 465 ponchos to Oranjekloof Primary in Hout Bay and 35 to Teddy’s Educare (Steensberg). At the same time we handed out knitted beanies (made in Switzerland) to every child at Teddy’s Educare.


This PC lab for Manenberg has been in planning for a long time. Last year we could finally help to realise Cherryl Crowie’s dream. She runs the St James Educaional Trust and focuses mostly on Manenberg. We have worked together on a few projects already. In 2007, three PC labs at three different schools in Manenberg were built. Hope-4-Kids funded the infrastructure for the one at Red River Primary. The Khanya project sponsored all the computers and software once the infrastructure was up to a acceptable standard.


A winter project ofr 2007, we handed out blankets. The blankets were knitted by school children from Gossau, Switzerland, under the supervision of Mrs Vreni Fürer.


Hope-4-Kids sponsored a reading program for Grade 3 learners of four schools in Mannenberg. (Red River, Sonderend, Rio Grande and Downville). At a presentation just a few months later, the learners were able to read to me out of their books. Before that, most of them didn’t even know how to write their name.


In 2004 my mom received many educational toys, clothing and soft toys. Our problem was getting it to Cape Town without spending too much money. SAA then offered a free-of-charge shipment for 150kg!! It was quite a mission but in the end there were many happy children – and that is all that counts for us at Hope-4-Kids.


Flora’s crèche was about to be closed down, since there were almost no more children coming to her (which also meant she would have lost her small income). I went to visit her and assessed the situation. She had a lovely back room to teach the children in. Her garden was big but there was nothing for the children to play on or with. I then decided to get her a jungle gym built. Just a week after the erection of the jungle gym I received a phone call from Flora. Her crèche was full again, the parents were very happy with her place and willing to pay the little school fees she asked from them.

Hope-4-kids a NPO invited Fisantekraal, an underprivileged school, to a fun-filled day at Elkanah House. The day was full of excitement and laughter thanks to lots of games and food. We received donations from Dairy connections and Won-Life-Group. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the motivated staff of Elkanah House, Won-Life, Fisantekraal-school and the sponsors.
