VIEW OUR PROJECTS HERE - We are heading for our 50th projects to date and three of them where extreme, extreme...

Most childcare facilities in informal settlements have minimal funds. After food, utilities and minimal salaries, there is seldom anything left for maintenance. As a result, the facilities soon become dilapidated.

Newkidz - with the help of volunteers - co-ordinates extreme makeovers of

Early Childhood Development Centers
Children’s Homes
Foster family accommodation
Shelters for abused women and children.

Newkidz recruits volunteers from all walks of life to contribute to the makeover project by doing painting, gardening, maintenance etc. so that roughly six weeks’ worth of work is completed in just three or four days! It is very exciting, and the results are immediate.

Newkidz also facilitate team building projects for corporates. As an alternative to the normal team building activities such as paint balling, quad-biking or go-karting, we co-ordinate a half or full day project in the community to beautify a centre. A far more rewarding activity for all concerned.

Each project is scrutinized prior to makeover to ensure that good governance is in evidence, and that the facility has the children’s best interests at heart.

Once a project is completed, Newkidz stays in touch with the facility by

networking on their behalf
sharing donations received
promoting training specific to their needs and holding the management accountable for the upkeep of the facility
