In the South African community of Shalati there are many single parent families and a vast number of orphaned children, often cared for by their grandparents. This is due in part to the prevalence of HIV/AIDS. Many children do not begin school until the age of eight, and receive no formal education and limited support during their early formative years. Based on the needs of these families and children, we aim to assist the local community with their goal of building and developing a pre-school so that children are provided with a secure and nurturing environment to learn and grow.

Planeterra Donation
2007: $1,900 covered the cost of replacing the leaking and bat infested roof of the pre-school, providing children with a more sanitary environment in which to learn. Donations raised through the Planeterra Foundation will provide funding for further development of the preschool.
