Educational Support for Disadvantaged Youths

The Homework Enrichment Lifeskills Programme (HELP) was created to provide extra support for children outside the classroom. Many come from homes where the space or time to do homework is limited or where learning is not encouraged. HELP explores different ways to enhance the children’s education and to enjoy the process by increasing their literacy and numeracy abilities.

About HELP

The Homework Enrichment Lifeskills Programme was created to provide extra support for children outside the classroom. Many come from homes where the space or time to do homework is limited or where learning is not encouraged. HELP explores different ways to enhance the children’s education and to enjoy the process by increasing their literacy and numeracy abilities.

Our Children

The children come from a diverse cultural background and they all have a history which is hard for us to understand and comprehend. Besides their very difficult living conditions and family lives, these children are survivors against all odds.

What We Do

We run after-school programmes and learners’ clubs in two primary schools viz Heathfield Primary School and Thomas Wildschutt Senior Primary in disadvantaged areas in the Western Cape.

Daily Programme

A homework programme four afternoons a week for disadvantaged children, helping them to understand and expand their knowledge in both reading and numeracy.

Amazing Team

From our dedicated key staff members to our wonderful volunteers whom without them, due to COVID, we would not be able to do what we do.

Overview

Nothing says it best like pictures and videos… here’s a sneak peek of some of our daily programmes. Our wonderful team member and volunteer Neville, is seen here inspiring the kids with some educational song and dance! 

Our Vision

We provide quality-driven education programs to help our learners achieve a high academic standard, combating the huge drop out in high school education. We enable and equip our learners with self-esteem and confidence to face the daily challenges of their social environment.

Our Programmes

HELP is currently working at two schools in Cape Town: Heathfield Primary School in Elfindale and Thomas Wildschutt Senior Primary School in Retreat.

HELP Daily Programme

A homework programme four afternoons a week for disadvantaged children, helping them to understand and expand their knowledge in both reading and numeracy.

DONATE

HELP requires a little over R500 000 per annum to see through our programmes and assist our almost 3,127 children with the Homework Enrichment Lifeskills Programme (HELP). Kindly consider donating and help shape the future of our children.

A Little Bit, Goes A Long Way

Every rand donated goes to providing books and stationery, food and supporting the enrichment of our children.

Our Amazing Team

It takes a village... meet our dedicated team members!
