What We Do

Four Ways We Serve

After-School Tutoring & Mentoring

Weekly sessions providing homework support, academic tutoring, and consistent mentoring relationships for children in Red Hill.

Holiday Programs & Camps

Structured holiday programs that keep children engaged, safe, and growing during school breaks — combining education with fun.

Food Security & Healthy Eating

In a community where food insecurity is real, we teach children practical skills to grow nutritious food – connecting farming knowledge with everyday wellbeing and healthy habits.

Community Development Initiatives

Broader community programs that extend our reach beyond the children we serve directly, supporting parents and local families.

Our Location

Scarborough Farm

Situated on 7 acres within the conservation village of Scarborough, our farm is located at the base of the Red Hill Informal Settlement — one of Cape Town's most underserved communities. Since moving here in 2021, Scarborough has served as the home of our after-school and holiday programs — a safe space for children to learn, play, and grow. It also functions as a prototype farm, focusing on small-scale, urban-style agriculture and food education. Our long-term vision for Scarborough is to develop it into a full educational hub and volunteer accommodation site — creating infrastructure to welcome international volunteers and deepen our community impact.
