Om programmet

We believe we can improve someone's life by giving them the best opportunity possible, and it should start with a good education and as early as possible.

Created in 2016, our Rise Creche is for the most vulnerable children (many from broken families) who's parents could not afford school fees. These 66 children for 2024 (from a few months old to 5/6 years old) come to the preschool daily for three meals and developmental learning.

Om programmet

Created in 2016, our Rise Creche is for the most vulnerable children (many from broken families) who's parents could not afford school fees. These 66 children for 2024 (from a few months old to 5/6 years old) come to the preschool daily for three meals and developmental learning.
The Rise Creche program focuses on Early Childhood Development, through play based learning specialized on Sensory integration.

For us, Early Childhood Development is the best way to grow a better tomorrow!
Volunteers involved in the program will assist in daily tasks' classroom assistance and playground based learning activities. 

Volunteers will stay at a Backpackers situated on the same property. 
You will spend your day working with the team, learning from them and having an amazing experience! Some days you will also accompany the Rise Creche Coordinator to outreach visits to other preschools we support. The work is very hand-on, so expect to be busy but remember to have fun!

We believe that conservation and communities cannot exist in isolation of each other - hence our goals through all our projects to interlink, grow, conserve and uplift. The holism of our programs is important as it works with the community as a whole to see the problems in a bigger picture. 

Our programming focuses are Education, Enterprise and Tourism.

We have a programming structure as follows:
 
- Green Kidz (our environmental education programme - We support 11 elementary-schools around the area)
- Social Enterprise, where we support and grow small businesses through an incubator
- Agro-Ecology training, very similar to permaculture, but more suited to African conditions
- Rise creches (Our Early Childhood Development programme. We support 6 pre-schools around the area)
- Eco Village (this includes our recycling programme and our general day to day outreach into the village around us).

You will be immersed into the project as one of the team members to engage in the planning and running of the programs. You can combine our projects during your time with us or focusing on one (your choice). You will have the opportunity to explore our amazing area during the weekend (extra cost - We can organize it!)

We can't wait to have you join our Family!

Om projektet

Möt din programledare

Nourish is a non-profit organization registered with the Department of Social Development in South Africa and has been running since 2011 in a village on the border of the Greater Kruger Park area. 

Our focus is on growing resilient communities. We believe in fighting poaching through fighting poverty - and thus all our projects are integrated, holistic and sustainable: to grow a better tomorrow...

Our goal is to create sustainable change - and have long-term impact in the spheres of both conservation and community upliftment. We believe that by working to grow resilient communities, that are healthy, educated, and have access to opportunities, we can break the poverty cycle and thus impact the poaching coming out of rural areas.

Our projects are all interlinked and holistic, in order to help a community grow in all aspects. We focus on early childhood development, food security, English literacy, social integration,
environmental education, conservation experiences, and entrepreneurial training.

We have a programming structure at Nourish as follows:
 
- Green Kidz (our environmental education programme-We support 11 elementary-schools around the area)
- Social Enterprise, where we support and grow small businesses through an incubator
- Agro-Ecology training, very similar to permaculture, but more suited to African conditions
- Rise creches (Our Early Childhood Development programme. We support 6 pre-schools around the area)
- Eco Village (this includes our recycling programme and our general day to day outreach into the village around us).

Nourish is a project with a heart. It's an excellent example of what can be accomplished by passion, hard work, creativity and determination. Its a place where people come together. Where you will learn just as much about the world as about yourself. ..
Great experience! I was welcomed with open arms in the Nourish family, those are memories that I cherish in my heart! I did an internship at NPO Nourish and I was welcomed with open arms. Together we did various activities with the children, organized games and competitions, built a hut,... ..
As an Australian, coming to South Africa was a bit of an outlandish idea. I came to South Africa on exchange during school and ever since wanted to come back for another trip to volunteer more. I did my research and found a few places to volunteer at around Africa but Nourish stood out to me. From ...
