The Ship of Ubuntu

Uncategorized 1 Minute

For the past four weeks, youth from the Sozo Foundation team and our students worked hard building an incredible wooden structure with our EDvance hero, and internationally recognized street artist, Libre Gutierrez. We have been amazed by the outpouring of support and recognition this project has gotten – we were on the cover of the Cape Times, in just about every news paper in Cape Town and on TV. This project has taught us all the importance of seeing the strengths in our communities and how art can build community and send a positive message.

Students are assigned to two different creches (preschool centers) in an informal settlement/township known as Vrygrond. EDvance has teamed up with True North, a local non-profit organization, to facilitate trainings and provide support to the preschool centers in Vrygrond.
