THE UNLIMITED CHILD
SIAS DU PLESSIS CHATS ABOUT HIS CAUSE THE UNLIMITED CHILD
If children do not receive the correct stimulation between the age of 0 and 6, such as learning colours and shapes through educational toys, parts of their brain will wither and die. This process is irreversible. Not even the best teachers in the world can help these children.
They are untrainable and destined for a life of poverty as they will never have the ability to learn a skill.
In South Africa this applies to over 6 million children – if they are to have a future, urgent intervention is needed.
The Unlimited Child directly promotes Early Childhood Development (ECD) by providing educational toys and caregiver training to underprivileged crèches. A Section 21 NPO based in Hillcrest, Durban, we aim to reach 1,25 million children throughout South Africa by 2016 but additional funding and replication of our model is required.
Only then, can thousands more children enter school with ready minds and the capacity to reach their full potential.
Our vision is that ALL preschool children attending crèches in South Africa have access to relevant and stimulating activities provided by trained caregivers, which will help them achieve their potential.
We achieve this by:
Supplying Educational Toys
Providing training for caregivers who work in the crèches
Monitoring and evaluating our crèches
Forming crèches into cluster groups
