Bottoms (shorts)
Quantity Needed: 108
Dear Supporter, At the Mthunzi Foundation, we work with teenage girls and young mothers who are facing some of life’s hardest challenges far too early. Many of these young women experience early pregnancy while still at school, and sadly, many are then excluded from continuing their education. Without support, they are left facing a future limited by poverty, stigma, and a lack of opportunity. We believe education is the foundation for independence, dignity, and hope. Every girl deserves the chance to learn, grow, and build a brighter future for herself and her child. As a newly established non-government organisation, the Mthunzi Foundation is committed to supporting teenage girls and young mothers through access to education, skills training, and practical assistance. However, we cannot do this alone. Today, we are reaching out to kindly ask for donations of shorts for the young women we support. Many of the girls arrive with very limited clothing and basic necessities. Comfortable, practical shorts would make a meaningful difference to their daily lives, helping them feel confident, cared for, and able to participate in school and training activities with dignity. We warmly welcome support from donors, sponsors, partners, and community members who would like to help empower these young women through practical generosity and compassion. Thank you for considering supporting the Mthunzi Foundation and the young mothers working hard to create a better future for themselves and their children.
Baby carrier
Quantity Needed: 10
The Mthunzi Foundation supports teenage girls who fall pregnant while still in school and are at risk of missing out on their education. Many of these young mothers are unable to return to the classroom, limiting their chances of building a secure and independent future. At Mthunzi Foundation, we believe education changes everything. When a girl can continue learning, she gains confidence, independence and the opportunity to create a better life for herself and her child. Without that support, her future becomes much more uncertain. A simple baby carrier can make a real difference. It allows young mothers to safely carry their babies while attending school or training, giving them a better chance to continue their education and work towards a brighter future.
Baby bottles
Quantity Needed: 80
The Mthunzi Foundation supports teenage girls who become mothers while still in school, many of whom struggle to continue their education. Without the right support, these young women often face difficult choices that can limit their future opportunities. Education has the power to change the course of their lives. When young mothers are given the chance to keep learning, they gain confidence, independence and the ability to build a better future for themselves and their children. Baby bottles are a simple but essential item. They help young mothers safely feed and care for their babies, making daily life more manageable and giving them a better chance to stay engaged in school or training.
