€2,300 Raised for Clean Drinking Water in Chivhu
What a result! Over the past few weeks, students, parents and staff at Elckerlyc School in Leiderdorp raised an incredible €2,300 for our clean water project.
The whole school got involved through a variety of creative initiatives. From book markets and toy fairs to bake sales and an art auction. All proceeds will go towards building a solar-powered water well at Chamukwenjera Primary School in Chivhu, the hometown of our chairman Prince.
This effort brought more than just money. It sparked conversations, built awareness, and gave the students a hands-on lesson in empathy, responsibility, and global impact.
“Because of Prince’s personal connection, the project became real for the children,” said Lesley de Quartel, director of Elckerlyc. “They could truly see how what we do here can change lives elsewhere.”
A big thank you to everyone who helped!
Cookies for Clean Water!
During the school holidays, a student from Elckerlyc School did something truly heartwarming. She baked delicious cookies, sold them to family and neighbours, and donated all the proceeds to our foundation.
What a beautiful initiative! Together with Elckerlyc School, we’re raising funds this school year to bring clean drinking water to a primary school in Chivhu. Actions like this show that even the smallest gestures can make a big difference.
Thank you, sweet cookie baker! 💙
We are incredibly proud and grateful for this kind of spontaneous support.
Do you have a fun idea to contribute? We’d love to hear from you. These kinds of initiatives are always welcome!
Great news: The teacher housing is complete!
We are thrilled to share this milestone with you! These homes provide more than just a place to live. They ensure stability for teachers, continuity for the school, and better education for the children. No more long commutes or housing uncertainty. Instead, teachers can fully dedicate themselves to their students, creating a stronger learning environment for years to come.
The impact of these new teachers’ rooms goes beyond their physical presence. By providing safe and reliable housing, we’re making it possible for more teachers to join and stay at our school. This means every child has access to the quality education they deserve.
💛 A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this possible. Together, we are building a brighter future—one brick at a time.
