Funda Kunye

Funda Kunye means Learn Together in isiXhosa with the understanding that not only are the children learning but the caregivers are too. We have a holistic approach to the upliftment of the community through sustainable ECD centres, encouraging our caregivers to become entrepreneurs. Our projects are focused on the Imizamo Yethu and Hangberg areas of Hout Bay, Cape Town. Our greatest desire is to see children reach their God-given potential through early learning programs, and caregivers equipped with the necessary ECD skills and resources to teach and reach those children.

Our goal is to make sure that IY is neat and clean and that our people know how to keep this place clean. How does picking up litter help the community? Keeping it beautiful: Litter is an eyesore, plain and simple. Studies show that litter can negatively impact your sense of community and safety. When others pass you as you pick up litter, smile and say hello. It shows pride in the community and encourages others to do their part, too. Some of the benefits of keeping a clean environment: – Infections-free life. Unarguably, germs and other harmful microorganisms thrive in filth. – Increased self-confidence. Satisfaction with your environment automatically boosts your self-confidence. – Higher productivity. – Sense of propriety.
