The Legacy Centre: Childhood Development & Education
Legacy Community Development NPC is a registered non-profit organisation located in Long Street, Kayamandi. The organisation operates from the Legacy Centre, a multifunctional community centre from which some of Kayamandi’s most pressing needs are addressed. Ever since its opening in 2002, the Legacy Centre has been constructively dealing with childhood development, skills development, heath care and food security. Built in collaboration with Stellenbosch Gemeente and Stellenbosch Municipality, the Legacy Centre forms a vibrant hub largely managed by local residents. The community is mobilised by an array of activities, clustered in programmes.
Legacy’s quest is to be in touch with God’s heart for the context of the day. Our mission is to bring God’s love, hope, compassion, and justice to Stellenbosch, starting in Kayamandi.
We follow an approach that is based on the holistic development of our beneficiaries.
We focus on:
- A journey towards employability
- Spiritual wellness (based on Christianity)
- Emotional, psychosocial and basic needs
- Health and physical exercise
- The building of relationships and networks
- Sound financial practices
- Well managed staff and volunteers
