Help Durban Child and Youth Care by donating 20 trestle tables for our children and youth.

Here's a little more info about this opportunity...

A donation of trestle tables can be highly beneficial to the Durban Child and Youth Care Centre (DCYCC) and the children and youth in its care. Though they may seem like a basic item, trestle tables are incredibly versatile, practical, and impactful in a care setting. Trestle tables provide additional surface space for serving and eating meals, especially when accommodating large numbers of children or staff. They can be easily set up in dorms, dining halls, or outdoor areas depending on need. Trestle tables create a structured space for tutoring, homework sessions, and reading. Creative activities like drawing, painting, and crafts need workspace—trestle tables are perfect for this. Tables can be arranged for group learning or workshops, supporting teamwork and engagement. DCYCC often hosts events such as: Family days, Volunteer days, Fundraisers or donor visits, Skills training or youth development sessions and trestle tables are essential for: Serving food, Displaying materials, Registration areas or check-ins, Stalls for fundraising or exhibitions. Trestle tables help keep activities organized and structured, which is especially important in a childcare setting where routine and order help children feel secure. They're useful for sorting donations, organizing supplies, or creating temporary workspaces for admin or planning. Trestle tables fold away neatly and can be moved around as needed, making them ideal for a dynamic care environment. With proper care, they can last for years and be reused in countless ways. A donation of trestle tables empowers the Durban Child and Youth Care Centre to run its programs more effectively, create flexible learning and activity spaces, host community events, and better meet the everyday needs of children and staff. It’s a simple yet deeply supportive contribution to a caring and well-functioning environment.
