No-Stone and Ukholo Daycare

Posted on 25 March 202325 March 2023 by Admin

Building a Better Future for Kalbaskraal's Children

The No-Stone Foundation has partnered with Ukholo Daycare to improve the lives of children in the rural community of Kalbaskraal. We have been working hard to provide support in various ways, including building a website, creating a brand, and helping with the reconstruction of the daycare center. In this blog post, we’ll tell you more about what Ukholo Daycare is, why they need our help, and what we are doing to make a difference.

Ukholo is a Xhosa word that means “faith.” It’s a fitting name for the daycare center, as it was founded by Hazel, a woman who has dedicated her life to caring for children in the community. Hazel’s vision was to create a safe, nurturing environment for children whose parents are mostly farm workers. With a full nutritional program in place, Hazel ensures that the children are well-fed and healthy. She also provides them with a rich learning environment, where they can play, learn, and grow.

Why does Ukholo Daycare need our help? Recently, a severe storm caused significant damage to the facility. Despite having paid for repairs, the work was not done properly, leaving the daycare center in a state of disrepair. The children were once again exposed to the elements, making the need for improvements even more urgent.

In addition to the physical improvements, a strong digital presence can also be a powerful tool for Ukholo Daycare. In today’s world, having an online presence is crucial for any organization, regardless of size or location. With a well-designed website, social media accounts, and other digital marketing tools, Ukholo Daycare can reach a wider audience, attract more support, and establish themselves as a trusted and respected institution in the community. A strong digital presence can help to increase donations, attract volunteers, and connect with potential partners and sponsors. By building a robust online presence, we can help Ukholo Daycare to thrive and grow, providing vital care and education to the children of Kalbaskraal.

The No-Stone Foundation has been working closely with Ukholo Daycare to improve their facilities and create a brand that reflects the quality of care provided. We began by building them a website, which will help them reach a wider audience and attract more support. We created their logo and branding materials, which will help to establish their identity and build trust with the community. We are also providing support for the reconstruction of the daycare center. The wood for the external walls is being delivered on Monday, and all the internal walls, supports, shelves, and cabinets have already been collected. We are excited to see the reconstruction begin, and we are committed to seeing it through to completion.

The Impact of Our Partnership: Our partnership with Ukholo Daycare is already making a significant impact on the lives of children in Kalbaskraal. The improvements to the facility will ensure that the children are safe, comfortable, and protected from the elements. The website and branding will help to establish Ukholo Daycare as a trusted and respected institution in the community. And most importantly, the children will have access to high-quality care and education, which will help them to thrive and succeed.

The No-Stone Foundation is proud to be partnering with Ukholo Daycare to build a better future for Kalbaskraal’s children. We believe that every child deserves a safe, nurturing environment where they can play, learn, and grow. With our support, Ukholo Daycare can continue to provide this vital service to the community, and we look forward to seeing the impact of our partnership in the years to come. How can No-Stone do this without regular funding, one might ask. The reason is that it has also partnered with Chocolate’s Angels Animal Rescue and Arbor Vitae Designs and they have volunteered their time to help a partner as they know we will do the same for them. 

Once it is complete, some more partners of our will go and paint and beautify Ukholo Daycare.

The No-Stone Foundation is all about developing and sharing relationships where possible as this is the only way for anyone of the smaller places to possibly make it. As is quoted in the Bible. “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

Our Team

The team has a mix of youth and experience, energy and wisdom. The bulk of the team live in Kalbaskraal. Again, this is headed up by Heike (with 24 yrs of outreach ministry experience) and Mark (40 yrs of coaching at various levels and sports). We can then add Jo-Anne with her 30 years of ministry and outreach.

Our Relationships

We have strong relationships with many ministries and companies. Each supporting us in various ways and in Kalbaskraal and out. Our prime focus is to be a complete service provider for the local primary school OJ Erasmus, and sourcing any resources that they require. Keep in mind that this is a model we are building to move onto other rural schools in the Swartland.
