Teachers for Africa Foundation needs your support

How nice of you to think of becoming a sponsor or partner! We can use your help very well. Do you already have a particular project in mind or would you rather sponsor our organization as a whole? We can use your support very well for the continuity of our projects as well as the substantiation of our organization. Only with a solid organization can our projects be launched, developed, controlled and successfully completed. Our projects badly need your (structural) support!

In order to continue our projects, we need structural money. This money is spent on the projects in South Africa and on the local coordination of those projects. As a donor, it is possible to choose a specific project so that the donation is only used for that purpose. Of course it is also possible and more than welcome to sponsor our foundation as a whole. A complete overview of our finances can be found in our annual accounts.

Foundation Teachers for Africa is designated as an ANBI institution at the Tax Authorities, a gift is therefore tax deductible. The advantage of donating to ANBI foundations is that the gift can be deducted in full or in part from the taxable income. The Tax and Customs Administration therefore pays for the gift.

All projects are sponsor projects, because we sponsor knowledge or materials for all our partnerships with the local population. Our mission is to provide the youth of South Africa with inspiring and qualitatively better education. Supporting our local partners in this is what Teachers for Africa has set for itself for years. Will you help us along?

    Special need projects Phalaborwa 8.000,- 25%

    Special needs project Phalaborwa

    Teachers for Africa Foundation asks your special attention for a particularly vulnerable group in South Africa, especially in a poor and rural municipality such as Ba-Phalaborwa, namely children/young adults with disabilities. All these people deserve a focused place with solid education and support.

    Our foundation works closely together with two local occupational therapists who together support a couple of large townships within the municipality of Ba-Phalaborwa with their dedication and knowledge. Both occupational therapists have also set up independent schools for children and young adults with disabilities as these groups are regularly ‘hidden behind the front door’, with many negative consequences as a result.

    Project new building for Special needs 45.000,- 1%

    Project new building for Special needs

    Teachers for Africa Foundation is committed to the realization of a new building for Horisani Special Needs School in township Lulukani, Phalaborwa. The current school building is very basic and not adapted for disabled people. In addition, this day-to-day project is forced to use the toilet building of the young adults day-care project Khomanani, with many associated risks. There are unsafe situations in the toilet block now and then, and the staff has trouble to counteract this as they cannot always stand by to help out when needed.

    With a new building with facilities for disabled people, it is possible that this day-to-day project can accept more special needs for pupils who unfortunately have no room at present due to their specific disability. In addition, it is good to know that this school is the only day-spending project for students with disabilities in Lulekani.
