Bhongolethu Foundation

Bhongolethu Foundation founder Tyler Sutcliffe joins us in the loft.

Bhongolethu Foundation is an organisation that provides financial and/or administrative support for Early Childhood Development Centres and Foundation to Intermediate Phase Educational institutions, whilst maintaining a specific preference for institutions that focus on pupils who are disadvantaged, or adversely affected by financial constraints, educational impediments, learning disabilities, inequality or patterns of abuse.

Bhongolethu’s main current objective is to provide Early Childhood Development education, whilst maintaining a specific preference for those disadvantaged, or adversely affected by financial constraints, educational impediments, learning disabilities, inequality or patterns of abuse. It plans to open a new class yearly until it reaches its goal of educating children in Foundation to Intermediate.
