Help Ernest Foundation by donating 60 child-sized chairs for creating a comfortable learning space
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
The Ernest Foundation is seeking donations of 60 child-sized chairs to create a more functional, comfortable, and engaging learning and activity environment for the children in our programs in Orange Farm, South Africa. Currently, we lack sufficient appropriate seating for the large number of children we support daily. Having their own chairs will significantly impact the children's ability to focus and participate effectively in educational activities, homework support, and recreational play by: Enhancing Learning: Providing dedicated spaces for children to sit comfortably, read, write, and engage in educational activities, improving their concentration and learning outcomes. Facilitating Group Activities: Allowing for better organization of children into groups for collaborative learning, discussions, and creative projects. Improving Comfort and Posture: Ensuring children have age-appropriate furniture, promoting better posture and reducing discomfort during long periods of sitting. Creating a Welcoming Environment: Contributing to a more structured and inviting atmosphere where children feel valued and ready to learn and play. We are looking for sturdy, durable chairs suitable for children, in good condition. Your contribution will directly support the development and well-being of the children in our care, helping us to provide a more effective and nurturing environment. Drop-off Location: The Ernest Foundation, 9929 Stretford 6, Orange Farm, 1841. Contact for Pick-up/Enquiries: 068 412 5933 or ernestfoundation1@gmail.com
