Masikhule Creche Upgrading

Location: Kosovo, Philippi, Cape Town - January 2015

Project Type: Crèche Upgrading

Project Description: Before Ikhayalami's engagement, Masikhule Creche suffered from many of the unfortunate but familiar problems of informal settlements: frequent flooding during the rainy season, inadequate toilet facilities, and an unsafe, unstable structure.  After removing the previous structure, Ikhayalami built an upgraded, fire and flood resistant creche, along with a toilet at the back of the structure.  

    • Goals: 
      • Build an upgraded creche in Kosovo Informal Settlement 
      • Provide a place of safety, health and learning for the vulnerable and disadvantaged children at Masikhule
      • Continue our project of upgrading as many creches in informal settlements in Cape Town as possible
    • Impact: 
      • Created a place of safety for vulnerable children in Samora Machel Informal Settlement 
      • Vastly improved the standard of health for all the children attending the creche
