Community - Marataba Foundation

ECD preschool in Matlabas village

MCCF has proudly supported the establishment of a small school in Matlabas, where the transformative Shiloh teaching program and Early Childhood Development initiative are shaping young lives in the village. With the dedication of an inspiring teacher and resourceful cook, children aged 0-7 year are nurtured in a loving and enriching environment. The vision extends beyond the daytime, as the school aims to offer remedial teaching for the community in the evenings, fostering a brighter future for all.

Veggie Ka Gae vegetable gardening project

Building on the success of its pilot program, MCCF supports the rollout of the Regorogile vegetable garden initiative. In this inspiring project the community is empowered to cultivate their own vegetables and create compost under the expert guidance of gardeners Jacco and Segametsi. Together, they are not only growing food but also are learning to manage precious water resources sustainably.

Thabazimbi Young Development Club

Since 2011, this NPO has been providing much-needed daily meals for roughly 150 children, along with clothing, a safe place for after-school homework and play. Under the leadership of its new director and a passionate team, the organisation is now focusing on holistic wellbeing, education, hobbies, sports and a changemaker initiative, with project-based support from MCCF.
