Circle of Friends Fundraising Campaign

Located in the rural Overstrand region of the Western Cape, we are a grassroots non-profit organisation working to nurture the potential of children and youth, while also empowering local women through education, creativity, and employment. At Creative Skills Factory, we believe in the power of creativity, compassion and community.

We are reminding you of our “Circle of Friends” fundraising campaign - a call to action for those who believe, like we do, that every child deserves the chance to thrive.

We know that many people want to help but feel unsure if a small monthly gift can really make a difference.

The truth is - it can.

When we stand together, small acts of kindness become powerful movements of change.

By joining our Circle of Friends, you commit to giving, for example, just ZAR150, €10 or £10, a month.

That’s less than the cost of one takeaway meal - yet it helps us provide life-changing programmes to hundreds of children and families.

Your monthly support will help us to:

- keep programmes running and staff employed;
- provide vital educational and therapy materials; and
- expand our reach to more schools and children in need.

Together, we can build a circle of hope, creativity, and opportunity.

Donate to our Circle of Friends in their name, and we'll send them an e-card letting them know about the life-changing programmes your gift is supporting.

It's a heartfelt way to honour a loved one while making a real difference.
