ASHA Pre-school Association
ASHA is a community-based organisation addressing this very problem, working towards breaking the cycle of poverty by providing day care and early childhood development services in economically challenged communities in Soweto, South Africa.
In support of South African government initiatives, the ASHA Preschool Association works to improve the lives of over 5 000 pre-school children in Soweto. We do this by delivering a full day pre-school programme, focussing on the children's health, nutrition, education and social, emotional and cognitive development at our 40 pre-schools.
Research shows that the most successful intervention takes place in the first few years of life. This intervention can have dramatic benefits that change the whole of the child's future. As a non-profit organisation, we are able to make this positive contribution through the support of donors and funding agencies.
