he Cape Town Volunteer Project is flexible and volunteers need to use their initiative and run parts of the project on their own.
The main objective is empowering the local community and supporting them with their basic needs. We regularly distribute food hampers to the underprivileged and clothes in the winter. We engage these communities in regular education, motivation, and social upliftment programs and exciting events such as fun at the beach, various sporting activities and movie outings which are hosted throughout the year.
Volunteers will help with the daily running of the programs for example:
Teaching lessons to children in the older groups (colours, letters, shapes, art, etc.) as well as teaching English through play and vocabulary stimulation.
Stimulating smaller children in the younger groups with developmental toys, touch and by speaking English to them.
Assisting with the tasks at the preschool such as cooking, cleaning, feeding and hygiene
