OUR NEWS

When we talk about young children and whose responsibility it is to raise them, the simple answer is usually the parents. However, in South African communities, the answer is more complex, with families placing the role of caregiver on many different people and stakeholders to invest in the country’s future human capital. An ECD centre is a facility, usually based within a local community, where trained staff provide protection, care, and support to children between the ages of zero and six years old.

The Leave No Young Child Behind (LNYCB) initiative continues to inspire all of us at the DO MORE FOUNDATION (DMF), as well as our partners.

Our vision is to inspire MORE people and organisations to #DoMore for the young children of South Africa and facilitate meaningful collaborative partnerships by placing young children at the centre of what we do.

This year was punctuated with devastating events that affected young children and their families, but as an organisation whose vision is “to create better tomorrows for South Africa’s young children”, it was incumbent on us to #DoMore.
