Changing the lives of children through Education
About us
Sakhimfundo Youth Programme is a high quality educational initiative that provides focused academic support to school-going children in Alexandra Township, Johannesburg. Our mission is to improve the educational outcomes and life options for a group of talented hard working young learners.
We are led by a talented team of young people in Alexandra and are supported by partners with experience in new projects, education and youth development. We combine technology-enabled learning with homework support and life skills development. We are especially focused on learners in Grades 1-7.
​
Thanks to our donors, a world class beautiful well-equipped Education and Performing Arts Centre is currently under construction in Marlboro on the northern edge of the township.

We are turning spaces of poverty ...
... into places of hope.
Join us.
We work with local partners who are making a positive change in the lives of their own community. Sakhimfundo is about a hand-up rather than a hand-out. The children in our programmes are committed to improving their academic marks and are working hard to achieve their dreams.
