A Thriving Time at Earthchild Project
We’re in the midst of an exciting phase at Earthchild Project. We’re making significant progress with our garden installation at Ntwasahlobo Primary School in Khayelitsha, the largest township in Cape Town, South Africa.
Ben, the Managing Director of Urban Harvest Edible Gardens, along with his dedicated team, have brought their vision to life with the design and installation of a sprawling 280m² garden.
Generosity at Work
This incredible project is fuelled by the generosity of many. It all began in 2023 when we launched a crowdfunding campaign with our partners Earthchild Germany. Through their support, we raised over €30 000.00 (R600 000.00), allowing us to kick off the first phase of this ambitious endeavour. But we’re not stopping here.
Our ultimate goal is to raise €50,000. This amount will cover the full installation costs, sustain operations for three years, and contribute to the meals prepared for over 1,000 children daily. Moreover, it will provide crucial environmental education to the school children.
