The First River Fun Club was started as a pilot project for the children of Faure in Eerste River which is a short distance from our operations base and workshop in Somerset West.
This community is surrounded by wine farms and the children of First River Fun Club have grown up where alcoholism, poverty and neglect are rife.
The initial concept was to provide a safe and fun environment for the children whose parents work during the school holidays.
It has spread its wings to become SO MUCH MORE than that for the many kids and teens who have found a safe place to learn and grow and express creativity with the amazing team of people who started it all.
The recent addition to this amazing project is the crèche that has been opened on the property.
