HOPE worldwide South Africa

HOPE worldwide South Africa has been serving vulnerable children, households and communities since 1993. From 2011, we have focused our efforts on the most vulnerable young children aged 0-6 years, as this is the most critical period in a childs development. What happens in early childhood will last a lifetime. We are investing in young children through: Early Childhood Development (ECD) Centre (creche) support, Community ECD Parenting programmes, Nutritional Support, and through our Adopt a Family programme. We are operating in seven provinces in South Africa: Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Western Cape, Limpopo, Mpumalanga and the Free State where many challenges face children and families. These include; poverty, hunger and high HIV/AIDS prevalence rates. Through partnerships with various organisations, sponsors and volunteers - we have reached over 60 000 vulnerable Children through our Early Childhood Development programmes
