Childcare Volunteering Program in South Africa
About Program
It can’t be stressed enough how important proper care and attention is when it comes to early childhood development. However, in areas where poverty is an issue, childcare can often take the back-burner as a result of the devastating effects of crime, drug-use, alcohol abuse and HIV/AIDS.
The DTR Childcare Project’s purpose is to fill this need as best as possible, to ensure that children who are affected by these issues are given the care and attention they deserve. We do this with the help of the Dreams to Reality Day Care centres where volunteers who want to make a difference take the time to care for these children properly. Volunteers do this by engaging children in educational activities as well as cooking, cleaning and feeding. It goes without saying that there will also be plenty of time spent playing.
