The Simunye Project

Make a Difference, Do Something Real!


The Simunye Project is a non-profit organisation with a focus on improving and expanding educational facilities for disadvantaged communities in South Africa.

‘Simunye’ is Zulu for ‘we are one.’ The Simunye Project’s mission is to empower young Australians with the skills and attitude to make a global difference.

Vegetable Garden Fence for New Life Daycare

Projects

Tshepang Christmas Activities

Projects

The kids at Tshepang got creative and made their very own christmas decorations which we hung up inside and on the christmas-tree we provided. There was so much going on at once! Everyone had a fantastic day! Every family also received a food hamper containing rice, sugar, cooking oil, canned beef, matches, tinned fruit, canned fish and various other necessities to help make Christmas a little easier.

Chickens for Tshepang

Projects

We set up an area for chickens at Tshepang and provided 20 chickens. We built a hen house and a covered area with roosting bars. A great team effort and beautiful red hen-house! We have since heard the hens have been laying eggs – a great addition to the nutrition of the kids at Tshepang!
