Who we are:

Funda Kunye means ‘Learn Together’ in isiXhosa. It was founded by Karen Temlett and Carina Van Der Merwe who share the same objectives to teach and train caregivers who own ECD daycares in informal areas to have an effective impact on the development of the children in their care.

Why are we passionate about this:

​This will create a space where we can learn and grow together to impact the educational standards of a community and grow God's Kingdom.

Ultimately, the correct care and stimulation in the first few years can reduce developmental delays and/or challenges later in these children’s lives. This can change the trajectory of their future.

We hope to see our training and daily programme used productively to make a long-term difference in the lives of the children’s cognitive, emotional, social, physical and spiritual development.

Our greatest desire is to see children reach their God-given potential through early learning programs, and caregivers equipped with the necessary ECD skills and resources to teach and reach those children.

Why we need your support:

By donating to the initiatives you are able to help us provide quality, early learning opportunities to children in underprivileged communities to have a life-long impact.

Imagine the transformation your donation can bring!

It’s a great way to contribute to our cause, and every little bit counts towards paving the path for a better tomorrow.

As a PBO we can issue section 18A  tax receipts for tax benefits. 

Join us in making a lasting impact. Your contribution isn't just an investment in education; it's an investment in a brighter future. 

Help us uplift our community and create a positive ripple effect that spans generations.
