Infrastructure and Resource Support
We work with early childhood development (ECD) centres and support them with the changes needed to create warm and welcoming spaces that encourage learning.
About Us
Every Seed Holds a Future
Education, especially early childhood education, is the key to transformation and a better future. Samara Foundation works in rural, under-resourced communities in the Eastern Cape, one of South Africa’s poorest provinces, and through developing and supporting education plants the seeds of change.
About Us
What We Do
In areas where access to services, resources and opportunities is limited, Samara Foundation does the following:
- Make infrastructure improvements to create conducive learning environments.
- Provide educational resources which promote learning in all areas.
- Create engaged and capable educators through capacity building and skills training.
For the future of our children

Our Projects
Developing And Supporting Education In Rural Areas
Through infrastructure and resource support, capacity building and training, we work to change the quality of education in rural communities, especially for children in their earliest years, where it all starts.
Capacity Building and Skills Training
To achieve lasting change at the ECD centres, we work with the ECD carers and make sure they have the skills to run a quality daily programme as well as manage their centres.
Africa Run: Ekuphumleni
We partnered on the international fundraiser, Africa Run, which raises once-off funds for a deserving school which is invested into infrastructure, resources and student and teacher development.
Annual Reports
Sowing the seeds of change
Through focusing on both immediate needs, such as infrastructure and resources, as well as building on the potential held within the community and its individuals through training, the seeds of change are sown.
