Children of the Valley
La Residence
Nurturing Young Minds In Langrug
Established in 2021, this organisation supports ECD centres in Langrug, an informal settlement in the Franschhoek Valley where many residents face seasonal unemployment.
Many young children are attending cramped, underfunded centres where food and proper education are lacking. These facilities have caring staff but lacked structured programmes, educational resources and adequate funding.
With the ongoing support of The Royal Portfolio Foundation, COV now works with six centres, slowly transforming them into nurturing spaces where over 98 children under six years old can thrive.
The organisation understands that investing in ECD represents one of the most effective strategies for breaking cycles of poverty. By ensuring centres become financially sustainable, COV builds foundations for lasting social change. ECD initiatives create opportunities that benefit entire communities, giving children in Langrug the strong start they need in life.
