Help Ernest Foundation by donating toys for ages 1 to 6 for children's play and development
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
The Ernest Foundation is seeking donations of toys specifically for children aged 1 to 6 years to provide stimulating and educational play opportunities in Orange Farm, South Africa. Play is a fundamental part of a child's early learning and growth. Toys are not just for fun; they are essential tools that help children develop critical skills. Your donation will help us: Support Cognitive Development: Provide age-appropriate puzzles, building blocks, and games that enhance problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking skills. Encourage Social Skills: Offer toys that promote sharing, communication, and collaboration during group play. Boost Fine and Gross Motor Skills: Help children develop coordination and strength through a variety of hands-on activities. Create a Positive Environment: Give children a sense of joy and comfort, making our center a more welcoming and nurturing space. We are looking for gently used or new toys that are clean, in good working condition, and safe for young children. We especially welcome puzzles, blocks, dolls, art supplies, and any other educational toys for this age group. Your contribution will directly impact the well-being and foundational development of the children we serve. Drop-off Location: The Ernest Foundation, 9929 Stretford 6, Orange Farm, 1841. Contact for Pick-up/Enquiries: 068 412 5933 or ernestfoundation1@gmail.com
