The 25:40 Aftercare Program was set up to meet the needs of orphans and vulnerable children in the Canzibe community through a set of important goals. These include, but are not limited to:

  • To provide children with a safe and secure place to come and receive emotional/psychological support.
  • To provide children with tutoring and assistance with their school work, and to ensure that they are completing their school assignments and homework properly.
  • To provide children with a healthy meal.
  • To provide children with additional teaching and training in the particular areas of English, Life Skills, Arts and Crafts, and Gardening/Practical Skills.
  • To monitor individual children on a daily basis for particular health, emotional, or educational needs, and to meet those needs or assist the children’s caretakers in meeting those needs.
