ABOUT US

 Mission Statement 

“Empowering Young Leaders of Today”

Sparkle Child & Youth Development is a Non Governmental Organization (NGO/NPO) committing itself to quality education, training and community development for change and empowerment. SPARKLE allows children to have a place for after school care and education support services to be free to do their school educational studies, with the help of caregivers, community volunteers and school teachers. We also provide our youth (School drop-outs and school leavers) a good education by allowing them to complete their schooling studies. To assist our youth with governmental education and training courses, this can be available to them and empower them socially. We also want to create job opportunities through job creation initiative programmes.

We also secure for teachers the training, facilities, opportunities and status they need to be effective, professional people. 
We look forward to any new and prospective working relationships with individuals, organisations, NGOs, public and private interest groups and national and international departments. Any interest in the above is gladly welcomed and received for the development of South Africa and the SADC countries together with international associations within the Southern hemisphere and a global context.

Introduction to Sparkle Child & Youth Development

The Founders of Sparkle Child & Youth Development (SCYD) have seen the need for change and development in the community and its surrounding areas with regards to gangsterism, substance and drug abuse. As community leaders and role models, we are aiming to restore in the youth the vision of hope and prosperity through assisting, directing and guiding them. Sparkle Child & Youth Development also has a strong working relationship with the World Education Fellowship South Africa (WEFSA) and the Dare to Care Initiative. WEFSA is a non-government organisation. It is open to educators, members of associated professions, and to all members of the public, who have a common interest in education at all levels. The fellowship meets biannually at international conferences, publishes books and pamphlets and through its national selections, participates in workshops, meetings and developmental projects. The fellowship does not advocate any dogma; each member is free to put its principles into practice in ways which are best suited to his/her living and working environment. The Dare to Care Initiative aims support and assists families who are battling to make ends meet through a Food Drive programme. Dare to care also have a clothing drive whereby they provide clothing for the needy, communities and squatter camps. The Dare to Care Initiative’s objective is based solely for the aid of communities where there is a dire need for change and unity. The Initiative’s outreach goes into communities which include Westbury, Newclare, Claremont, Coronationville, Eldorado Park, Langlaagte, Ennerdale and Newlands. All these areas have been affected especially since covid19 hit our shores leaving Families destitute.

Vision Statement:

We commit ourselves to quality education, training and community development for change and empowerment. This commitment is extended into child, youth and community development focusing on outreach programmes targeting real issues such as gangsterism, substance and drug abuse and developing community leaders and role models to restore in the youth prosperity and guidance.

 Sparkle Child & Youth Development is a Non Governmental Organization (NGO/NPO) committing itself to quality education, training and community development for change and empowerment. SPARKLE allows children to have a place for after school care and education support services to be free to do their school educational studies, with the help of caregivers, community volunteers and school teachers. We also provide our youth (School drop-outs and school leavers) a good education by allowing them to complete their schooling studies. To assist our youth with governmental education and training courses, this can be available to them and empower them socially. We also want to create job opportunities through job creation initiative programmes. The primary purpose of education today is to help all of us to grow as self-respecting, sensitive, confident well-informed, competent and responsible individuals in society and in the world community. People develop these qualities when they live in mutually supportive environments where sharing purposes and problems generate friendliness, commitment and cooperation. Schools should aim to be communities of this kind. Learners should, as early as possible, take responsibility for the management of their own education in association with and support from others. They should be helped to achieve both local involvement and a global perspective. High achievement is best obtained by mobilizing personal motivation and creativity within a context of open access to a variety of learning opportunities. Methods of assessment should aim to describe achievement and promote self-esteem.

Sparkle’s Value Add

 SPARKLE has a wide range of services to support the education curriculum changes implemented in the national schooling and workplace education and community development training systems. We allow youth to explore their creative talents through arts and culture and performing arts. SPARKLE also assists the youth by guiding them in living fruitfully and be able to have a positive outlook on life and preparing the young children and youth as to what life has to offer them. Some of our members have wide experience in community development programmes which focus on youth empowerment, counselling and skills development.  We promote education as a lifelong process for all people, regardless of sex, race, beliefs, economic status or abilities. We encourage co-operative community involvement in clarifying educational goals and undertaking educational programmes. We also secure for teachers the training, facilities, opportunities and status they need to be effective, professional people.

SPARKLE acts as a catalyst of change, where innovative and creative thought is needed to overcome challenges and provide workable solutions. We bring different stakeholders in education together, and foster links to develop communities of practice in both the workplace and formal and informal education. We look forward to any new and prospective working relationships with individuals, organisations, NGOs, public and private interest groups and national and international departments. Any interest in the above is gladly welcomed and received for the development of South Africa and the SADC countries together with international associations within the Southern hemisphere and a global context.
